Orange City, Iowa — One of the fun things you can do during Orange City’s Tulip Festival in May is this year’s Tulip Festival Night Show — Rodgers + Hammerstein’s CINDERELLA.
In addition to the May 13-16 line up of shows, the Tulip Festival Committee has announced that there will be an additional show on Tuesday, May 12. The Tuesday and Wednesday shows will begin at a special time — 6:30 p.m. — creating what they’re calling “a family-friendly time frame for all to enjoy.” Tickets will go on sale on January 14 and will be available online at www.octulipfestival.com/tickets and at the Orange City chamber office for $25 each.
Tulip Festival officials tell us that co-directors for this year’s show are Drew and Amanda Lemke. The Lemkes have been involved in the Night Show production for years and look forward to directing this year’s cast of performers and continuing the night show tradition with this production of CINDERELLA.
Auditions for the show will be held on Monday, January 13, from 7-9 p.m., January 14, from 7-9 p.m. and January 16, from 7-9 p.m. The auditions take place at the City Hall in downtown Orange City.
