Calling all actors and actresses! The Family Theatre at Rose Hill Baptist Church will be holding auditions for their next production, Pink and Say.
Pink and Say is a stage play, based on a true story, which presents us with two men from the Union army who meet after a battle of the Civil War. Say, a young white man, has been wounded. Pink, a black man, carries him home where his mother is surviving in the ruins of a deserted plantation.
