Announcing Rubicon Theatre Company’s
Summer Education Program 2021!
Summer is coming! And, though it’s hard to predict what life will be like even two months from now, here at Rubicon, we’re making plans that will bring us together as artists and educators! We’re excited to announce that this summer we WILL meet daily for rehearsals - for at least part of the day. Yes, some rehearsals will be held remotely, and our final product will be filmed - but together as a group, we will once again DANCE, SING, ACT and celebrate live theatre --
IN PERSON!
AUDITIONS (LIVE!)
May 15, 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. & May 16, 1 p.m. – 5 p.m.
Rubicon Theatre, 1006 E. Main Street, Ventura, CA 93001
(Video auditions will also be accepted)
In order to ensure that those auditioning are at a safe-distance, ALL LIVE
AUDITIONS are staggered and must be scheduled in advance. Masks must be
worn except when performing. Please fill out the form at this link to schedule
your audition date and time. Our greatest concern is your well-being!

Here at Rubicon, we feel everybody should have access to the arts. If you’d like to be a part of our summer programs, but you can’t afford the tuition, that’s okay. Fill out a Financial Aid form HERE, and then schedule your audition today. We’ll do everything we can to make you part of the team!
PLEASE NOTE: We are following all government rules and guidelines
related to how and when groups can gather. As we move to new tiers,
these are expected to change. This affects cast size, which in turn
affects show selection. Because of this, we are delaying announcing
the titles of our summer musicals. Here’s what we do know...
