Ruston Community Theater was formed December 19, 1977 by a group of local citizens who loved theater and wanted to create an opportunity for the people of Ruston to direct, act, and attend local community productions. When the Dixie Center for the Arts opened its doors in 2006, RCT moved in as a priority partner. Four productions are presented each season.

Imprisoned on the Isle of the Lost – home of the most infamous villains who ever lived – the teenaged children of Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Jafar, and Cruella De Vil have never ventured off the island... until now. When the four troublemakers are sent to attend prep school alongside the children of beloved Disney heroes, they have a difficult choice to make: should they follow in their parents’ wicked footsteps or learn to be good?
The audition dates are December 9 at 10 AM, and December 10 at 2 PM, at The MARC (504 E. Georgia). Participants will need to prepare a 45-60 second monologue to recite for memory and prepare 16-20 bars of music to sing. Please bring a recording of the music (bluetooth speaker will be available) or sheet music for the accompanist to play. As there are many dance numbers in this show, there will be a dance portion to the audition. Please wear comfortable shoes and clothes you can move around in. Auditions are open to teens ages 13 through young adults up to age 24.
