Our last show was "Coyote on a Fence" which was held on March 22nd & 23rd on the 2nd floor of CJ Maggie's that explored the concept of the death penalty and the meaning of evil.

"Into the Woods" by Stephen Sondheim
July 17th - 21st at Wesleyan's Performing Arts Center
A musical that intertwines the plots of several Brothers Grimm fairy tales and follows them to explore the consequences of the characters' wishes and quests.  The main characters are taken from "Little Red Riding Hood", "Jack and the Beanstalk", "Rapunzel", and "Cinderella", as well as several others.  The musical is tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife and their quest to begin a family, and their interaction with a Witch and her curse on them.

"The Rocky Horror Show" by Richard O'Brien
Sept 12th, 13th, 19th, & 20th at the Trans Allegheny Lunatic Asylum
A musical presented in time for Halloween that tells the story of a newly engaged couple getting caught in a storm and coming to the home of a mad transvestite scientist unveiling his new creation, a muscle man named Rocky Horror.  The musical has since developed a cult following and was also adapted into the 1975 film "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", which today has a worldwide cult following and has the longest-running release in film history.  Audience members will enjoy favorite songs, including "Time Warp" and others.  This show is suitable for a mature audience as well.

Auditions:

   Buckhannon Community Theatre is always looking for local talent, including actors and musicians, who would like to get involved in any of our upcoming productions.

Volunteers:

   While striving for excellence in live theatre, Buckhannon Community Theatre productions rely on local talent to volunteer their time to help with every thing from set design and construction to promoting shows and stage lighting during the show. No expertise is needed! We appreciate help from within our community and we think that you'll enjoy learning new skills or perfecting old ones while meeting new people.

Highlights of Past Shows

   Over the years, several members of the community have shared their talents with us, many of which I'm sure you'll remember if you've been to any show listed below.

A Night on Broadway III

   In 2011, cast members of Buckhannon Community Theatre under the direction of Jim Knorr started the group's 40th Anniversary celebration by putting on "A Night on Broadway III", a one night show on January 8th which was sold out, despite some of the worse winter weather of the season.  Pictured here is Mary Simms, Katie Loudin, Judy & Jim Knorr.


Camelot

   In August of 2010, cast members under the direction of Zoe Ludski, along with musical direction by Katie Loudin, presented "Camelot" at the Virginia Thomas Law Center for the Performing Arts on the campus of West Virginia Wesleyan.  It was great to see so many new and returning actors to Buckhannon Community Theatre! The show featured great local talent singing favorites such as "I Loved You Once in Silence," "The Simple Joys of Maidenhood," "Camelot," and "If Ever I Would Leave You."
