2026 AUDITIONS

Psalm 139:16: ‘Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before I came to be.’

​

Our days are numbered. That fact, at times, can be a source of great anxiety, or truth from which we take immense comfort. The knowledge that, regardless of how we understand or observe it, our Creator is dictating our steps forward.

 

But how do we choose to move?

 

What decisions do we make to use the time we’re given, knowing that it will end?

 

What do you do when that time runs out, and you’re left to pick up the pieces instead?

 

IN TIME investigates this very premise. In River City, a West Coast metropolis searching for ways to grow, we focus in on the life of Daniel, a young, stargazing newswriter months away from marrying Skye, the woman of his dreams. He’s surrounded by Jake, a young school resource officer and his best friend, Lewis, the pastor of their church, Colette, Skye’s baker-turned-roommate-turned-friend, and a troupe of townspeople looking to help tell this snapshot of the story. Daniel, and the rest of the cast pursue the plans for their lives, but are those plans theirs to dictate?

 

Throughout the narrative we explore what it means to move forward in faith, to trust that even the worst circumstances ripple outward to be so much more than we could even dream of. The characters and the city combine, stepping forward to seek the Lord, living their lives in His providence.

Skye: A 20-something journalist for River City News. Full of light and care, friendly but a little too in-the-moment that reads like a fear of hope. (20’s-30’s, Vocal Range - C4/Middle C - G5)

 

Jake: A young peace officer, and Daniel’s best friend of many years. A natural wingman who feels like he has to earn back what he thinks he gave away. (20’s-30’s, Vocal Range A2 - F#4).
