Calling all actors and dancers! Merrimack Hall Performing Arts Center is holding open auditions for our first original production. Opening the 2009-10 Merrimack Hall season is "Upon Their Shoulders: The Merrimack Story," written and researched by local playwright Ron Harris. The play illustrates the rich history of Huntsville through the lives of real people who labored in the city's textile mills. Dramatizing real events that occurred at Merrimack Mills and the surrounding mill village where Merrimack Hall Performing Arts Center is located today, the play traces the development of child labor laws, mandatory school laws, and the socioeconomic impact on our city today. Auditions will be held on July 18 and 19, 2009, at 2:00 p.m. at Merrimack Hall Performing Arts Center.
