Auditions for Shenandoah Dec. 13 & 14--Saturday at 10 a.m.; Sunday at 2 p.m. This is a poignant story about Charlie Anderson, a widower, who lives with his large family in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia during the American Civil War. Anderson does not wish to be involved in the war because he doesn’t consider it “his” war and tries to keep his family neutral as the Civil War rages around him. The family is inevitably swept up in the conflict. Their story is a heart-warming and heart-rending portrayal of the upheaval that left wounds on the land and its people for generations to come.
