Membership options are $15 for Christmas, $40 for the spring and $50 for both sessions. Rehearsals are held on Tuesdays from 7-9pm at Central High School. All voice parts are needed.

Central High School
West Allis Players Central High School The West Allis Players will be putting on the performance of “RUMORS” by Neil Simon. Performances will take place at the end of April or early May. Once exact dates are determined, it will be made available on their website at westallisplayers.org. “RUMORS” by Neil Simon is a comedy that first premiered in 1988. Four couples arrive at the townhouse of a deputy New York City mayor and his wife to attend a party celebrating their tenth wedding anniversary. However, the four couples soon discover that there are no servants, the hostess is missing and the deputy mayor has been injured. Comic complications arise when, given everyone’s upper-class status, they decide to do everything possible to conceal the evening’s events from the local police and the media. Please check the West Allis Players website for audition and rehearsal information.
