'Annie' an entertaining musical for all ages begins the Summerset Theatre season.

Auditions for Summerset's three plays, two musicals and one comedy, will be held May 4 from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. and May 6 from 6 – 9 p.m. at the Frank W. Bridges Theatre on Riverland campus.

Jerry Girton will direct the fun-filled adventure about Annie, an orphan determined to find the parents that abandoned her. It debuts on June 16.

Anyone who is interested is welcome to audition, Girton said. "Nothing needs to be prepared for the audition. We'll teach them what they need to know -- dancing, singing and reading."

'Funny Money,' a comedy by Ray Cooney about a mild-mannered CPA who accidentally gets the wrong briefcase -- one full of money -- will be directed by David Dahlquist and begins July 10.

'Tintypes,' a comedy directed by Joyce Matthies, will have music from the turn of the century when living was easy, times began changing and life began to bustle. It premieres at 7:30 p.m. on July 24.
