Help Us Meet Our Match on Big Day of Giving!

As we gear up for the Big Day of Giving at the Woodland Opera House, we invite you to jump-start the momentum by giving early! Your support today will set the stage for a successful event on Thursday and make a meaningful impact on our mission.

This year, your donations will go even farther as we are thrilled to announce that we have a $20,000 match! And any donors that use a Golden 1 Credit Union Debit Card will automatically have their donations matched as well!

We are raising funds for a wide array of projects happening at the theater. We are in need of a new truck to assist production in transporting supplies/production materials. Our education program is bursting at the seams and we are raising funds for upgrades to our educational facility. This includes creating more collaborative and flexible learning spaces and gives us necessary upgrades including ADA access, sprung floors, HVAC, and other updated fixtures.

Donating also enriches our scholarship programs, allows us to provide free or low cost theater outreach experiences to schoolchildren, and helps us keep our rehearsal space in tip-top shape.

Every donation, no matter the size, allows Woodland Opera House to continue to bring the magic of theater to our community, fostering creativity, connection, and inspiration. By giving early, you'll join us in amplifying the arts and ensuring that our various programs thrive.

From Big Dog to Little Dog: The Search for Bruiser Woods

The Woodland Opera House is excited to announce our casting search for our Bruiser Woods for our upcoming August production of Legally Blonde the Musical! This cutie pie needs to be house trained, spayed/neutered, and have a relaxed and easy-going temperament.  Bruiser candidates should be comfortable around large groups of people, loud noises and music, bright lights, and other dogs (we have already cast our Rufus and Rufus understudy!)

CHARACTER BREAKDOWN

Bruiser – Elle Woods’ lap dog such as a Chihuahua, Pomeranian, Terrier, etc.  Appears in multiple scenes and will need to be able to:

- Bark on command
- Run out on stage off leash
- Be picked up and carried around
- Respond to commands from the actors playing Elle and Margo such as “come,” “sit,” and “stay.”

Please submit your dog’s  interest, photo, and video introduction to: [email protected].
