ASTORIA – Astor Street Opry Company’s “Shanghaied in Astoria” has closed for the season, but the fun never ends at 129 W. Bond St. Upcoming shows include the annual “Topsey Turvey Shanghaied,” at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Sept. 28 and 29. The already rollicking show is given an added twist as the guys take on the women’s roles and the gals take on the men’s roles.
Following hard on the high heels of “Topsey Turvey Shanghaied” is the fall production, “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest,” starting Oct. 11 and running through Oct. 27.
The season wouldn’t be complete without the annual holiday show, “Scrooged in Astoria?,” which starts Dec. 6 and runs through Dec. 23. Auditions for “Scrooged” will be held from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15, and 5 to 6 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 16.
In addition, applications are being accepted for the Winter Children’s Theatre shows and directors, with a deadline of Sept. 30, and the annual New Works Festival script contest, with a deadline of Nov. 1. And finally, booth spaces are available for the annual Starving Artist Faire, to be held Dec. 7 through 9.
