We will hold open call auditions for the 2027 summer season of Kentucky Shakespeare Festival on Monday, November 30, 2026. At this time, we will only be seeing actors with local housing. The season will be three plays TBA, non-Equity contract April 26-July 25, 2027. Rehearsals are during the daytime and must have full availability.
