Hastings High School Play Auditions

We are excited to announce auditions for our high school play, The Outsiders. 


Based on a novel by S. E. Hinton, The Outsiders is about two weeks in the life of a 14-year-old boy. Ponyboy Curtis shares his struggles with right and wrong in a society in which he believes he is an outsider. It is a poignant story about the societal battle between two groups known as the Greasers & the Socs.


Auditions will be held Thursday, September 8 from 3:15-4:30 p.m. and Friday, September 9 from 3:15-5:00 p.m.


There are reference materials on the book, the play, the movie, and the characters. It will be beneficial to research a bit!
