SYNOPSIS:
Adapted by Joseph Robinette, Based on the book by E.B. White / This is the endearing classic about a mouse named Stuart Little who is born into an ordinary New York family. The many adventures—both big and small—of Stuart Little are brought vividly to life in this story theatre presentation. The acting ensemble plays many human and animal roles in a series of delightful scenes that make up the marvelous maneuverings of a mild-mannered, helpful, and industrious mousemouse trying to survive in a “real people’s world.” Based on E.B. White’s classic 1945 novel, this play is sure to delight both audiences and young performers alike.
Stuart Little is no ordinary mouse. Born to a family of humans, he lives in New York City with his loving parents, Mr. and Mrs. Little, his older brother George, and Snowbell the cat. Though he’s shy and thoughtful, Stuart is also a true lover of excitement and tries to live life to the fullest. This includes trying to negotiate life in the same household as Snowbell, who does not always have Stuart’s best interest at heart.
Play by Joseph Robinette. Based on the book, Stuart LIttle, by E.B. White. Stuart Little is presented through special arrangement with Dramatic Publishing, Inc.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS:
- Please prepare a musical selection that shows off the character of your voice; please bring sheet music (pianist provided) or a backing track (no voices); you may blu-tooth to our stereo or bring a CD. Audition may also consist of readings from the script (provided at audition time).
- You do not need to make an audition appointment, simply show up. We see people in the order they arrive and complete paperwork. To print and fill out the audition form ahead of time please click HERE.
- IMPORTANT: If you audition for our production and are cast it is expected you will follow through and do our production; failure to do so may prevent you from being cast in a future show as you will have possibly taken a spot from someone who was not cast. If you are auditioning ONLY for specific roles you may specify that on the audition form and you will only be considered for those roles. If you do not specify we will assume you will accept ANY role offered.
- There is a $125.00 production fee associated with this production. Also included in the production fee: all rehearsal materials for the show, a show t-shirt, and professionally taken photos from the production.
- IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING FINANCIAL HARDSHIP and need financial assistance please fill out our Majestic Theatre Scholarship Form – this should be done immediately AFTER casting as needing scholarship assistance is NOT a factor in casting.
- In addition, there is a $75 “Doing Your Part” deposit that you get back once all production support items are completed. See the DYP requirements: Stuart Little DYP 2024 (for your reference only – will be filed electronically at the end of the production). NOTE: We need your help, not your money – almost all DYP checks are returned each show at the end of the production after program support is recorded.
