Upcoming Production: The Glitter Girls
November 13-15 and 19-21, 2026
An ad hoc meeting of a North Georgia women’s social club called “The Glitter Girls” is convened by its richest member – one Trudy Tromaine – who is supposedly at death’s door and wishing to bequeath some of her millions to one lucky “Sister of the Gleam and Sparkle.” The hitch is that it’s the members themselves who must decide to whom to award the small fortune (with hopes that the Glitter Girl they select will see it in her heart to share the money with the rest of her “sisters”). It's "Steel Magnolias” meets “Survivor!" Pierre Players presents Mark Dunn's comedy "The Glitter Girls" on Nov. 13-15 and 19-21, 2026, with a pay-what-you-can performance on Nov. 11, 2026.

Upcoming Auditions: Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors
December 7, 2026
Ever wondered what would happen if you took Bram Stoker's legendary vampire tale and put it into a blender with Mel Brooks, Monty Python, and "The 39 Steps?" That's exactly what happens in the lightning-fast, laugh-out-loud comedy "Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors." When Mina falls ill with a mysterious disease of the blood, her sister Lucy Westfeldt and Lucy's fiancé, Jonathan Harker, enlist the help of famed vampire hunter Doctor Jean Van Helsing. Their hunt for the dangerous and sexy Count Dracula is filled with clever wordplay, quick-change antics, outrageous characters, and plenty of theatrical chaos. With just five actors playing more than a dozen roles, this gender-bending comedy is a fast-paced and hilarious challenge for performers. Pierre Players will hold auditions for "Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors" on Monday, Dec. 7, 2026, at 7 p.m. at the Grand Opera House. There are parts for five adults, any gender. Performance dates are Feb. 19-21 and Feb. 25-27, 2027, with a pay-what-you-can performance on Feb. 17, 2027. Questions, contact joshualpenrod@gmail.com.
