Student Cabaret Night was a huge hit with three performances earlier this year, we are rounding out the end of 2021 with a reimagined concept. There is no cost to participate, however there will be a cost for tickets for parents, friends, and family to attend the performance. Unlike the past three cabarets, the summer cabaret will be performed similar to a Prism concert where students will perform in the audience, aisle ways, and all over the theatre. Students will perform solos, duets, and more in the cabaret, selections of what will be performed will be sent out right after auditions, with time to prep prior to rehearsals beginning.

Tuition: $325 after auditions, if cast.
Director: Brianna Ross
A small fee of $25 will be charged when choosing an audition slot. If you are cast in the production, the fee will be applied towards the $325 tuition. If you are not cast in the production, the fee will be refunded to you. If you cancel your audition slot or do not show up for auditions, the $25 will not be refunded or applied to other programs.
The action is set in Truvy’s beauty salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana, where all the ladies who are “anybody” come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant, Annelle (who is not sure whether or not she is still married), the outspoken, wise-cracking Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town’s rich curmudgeon, Ouiser, ("I’m not crazy, I’ve just been in a bad mood for forty years"); an eccentric millionaire, Miss Clairee, who has a raging sweet tooth; and the local social leader, M’Lynn, whose daughter, Shelby (the prettiest girl in town), is about to marry a “good ole boy.” Filled with hilarious repartee and not a few acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions, the play moves toward tragedy when, in the second act, the spunky Shelby (who is a diabetic) risks pregnancy and forfeits her life. The sudden realization of their mortality affects the others, but also draws on the underlying strength—and love—which give the play, and its characters, the special quality to make them truly touching, funny and marvelously amiable company in good times and bad.

A Bronx Tale takes you to the stoops of the Bronx in the 1960s- where a young man is caught between the father he loves and the mob boss he’d love to be. Bursting with big, high-energy dance numbers and the doo-wop music of Alan Menken, A Bronx Tale is an unforgettable story about respect, loyalty, love, and above all else: family.
The New York Times hails A BRONX TALE as “A Critics’ Pick! The kind of tale that makes you laugh and cry.”
Please note: Younger male students (under the age of 13) interested in the role of Young Calogero may audition as well.
Please note: Students may participate in multiple classes and programs with OFC at the same time. Contact us for clarification on any potential schedule overlap.
