Up Next… Gypsy!

Gypsy is loosely based on the 1957 memoirs of striptease artist Gypsy Rose Lee, and focuses on her mother, Rose, whose name has become synonymous with "the ultimate show business mother." It follows the dreams and efforts of Rose to raise two daughters to perform onstage and casts an affectionate eye on the hardships of show business life. The character of Louise is based on Lee, and the character of June is based on Lee's sister, the actress June Havoc.

The musical contains many songs that became popular standards, including "Everything's Coming Up Roses", "Together (Wherever We Go)", "Small World", "You Gotta Get a Gimmick", "Let Me Entertain You", "All I Need Is the Girl", and "Rose's Turn".

ACT Membership Year & Play Schedule

We've made a change at ACT to better align our production schedule with other theaters in the area and to allow us time this fall for a significant upgrade to our tech booth!

Our production year was originally scheduled from October 2023 - September 2024 but is now going to run with the calendar year. Our 64th season will run January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024.

The plays in our schedule remain the same - only the dates of And Then There Were None have changed from the Fall of 2023 to the Fall of 2024. All current members will have their tickets changed for And Then There Were None automatically - there is nothing you need to do. New members will be issued tickets following the new schedule:

Arsenic and Old Lace - Jan 26 - Feb 17, 2024

Gypsy - Apr 26 - May 18. 2024

Hair - Jun 21 - Jul 13, 2024

And Then There Were None - Oct 25 - Nov 16, 2024

If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to us! We're available at info@auroracommunitytheatre.org or by phone at (330) 562-1818.

ACT would like to thank The Portage Foundation for awarding us with a grant that will help update equipment for our tech booth.

The updates are to assist us with our technical educational component to Children's Summer Workshop.
