2025 — “The Horrors Persist (But so do we)”
Currently, our theatre does not own a building and is working out of two different locations. The first and primary location is First Congregational Church of Oshkosh, WI. We are not a religious entity and are not directly affiliated with FCC, but we thank them for allowing us to perform within their space. The second location gracious enough to work with us for a space is Oshkosh Marriage and Family Therapy Center on the south side of town. We also will work with other venues from time to time in order to increase visibility to our humble little theatre.
We are currently using this season to explore identity and what it means to the characters within the stories that we tell. Our first play of the season is '“‘Art’” by Yasmina Reza, translated by Christopher Hampton. We’ll also be doing “Taming of the Shrew” by William Shakespeare, a Salon evening surrounding Frankenstein and critically thinking about the themes raised in the novel, and potentially “Heroes of the Fourth Turning” by Will Arbery as a season closer at the end of the year.
This current season is being used as both a workshop opportunity for our current company in order to allow our company’s talent to refine their craft. This is also a season that we are using to build our talent pool and expand the amount of actors in our company. Because of this, there will be open auditions and casting calls throughout the season. We are working hard behind the scenes!

Auditions -- Taming of the Shrew
It’s been a long time since we’ve had the opportunity or staffing to produce a Shakespeare show, and we hope that you’ll consider taking part in our unique take on it. We are in need of new, interested, and passionate actors and crew members as we seek to expand our team!
Rebel Alliance Theatre is a volunteer-based educational theatre program. We are a resident company and rarely hold open auditions. Our company of creatives have been working with the company for many years and are focused on the making of theatre as a social responsibility and who have the training and experience to help others learn to do that as well.
-
Yes, and no. We serve our community. We invite the community to participate. We ARE a community. BUT, though we DO have fun, and this is often a social experience, we are NOT doing this as a social outlet. We are doing this because we believe in the power of storytelling and live theatre to change the world in positive ways.
-
Auditioning for our summer Shakespeare experience does not obligate participating community creatives to the company beyond this production. At any given time, we are open to adding 2-6 new company members and may extend invitations at any point through the rehearsal process.
No one at Rebel Alliance is currently paid. For all of us, this is a labor of love and responsibility. All funds collected from fundraising and ticket sales goes into production budgets and operational costs.
-
The Taming of the Shrew has, like all of Shakespeare’s work, a flexible cast. Flexible in number, flexible in gender.
Principal parts (those that are generally played by an actor that plays no additional parts in the play) are Katherina (the “shrew”), Pertruchio (“the tamer”), Bianca (the sister), Lucentio (Bianca’s favored wooer), and Tranio (Lucentio’s servant, who pretends to be Lucentio for most of the play).
There are multiple supporting roles (generally played by actors who play up to five different roles at once), as well as non-speaking roles.
-
No. We’ll teach you “to speak Shakespeare” and we never use accents.

Saturday 'Art' Interactive Show
Interactive Performance
THIS IS AN INTERACTIVE SHOW, SO PLEASE NOTE!
An interactive show is an experimental introduction into what a rehearsal looks like through an interactive performance. We invite those interested in joining Rebel’s team, or those that want to dive deeper into the work that we do by asking our characters and actors “What?” in the middle of the performance. If there’s something you don’t quite understand, want to hear said again, or want to start a discussion about, simply speak up and say “What?”. The action will pause and we invite the discussion to begin!
We’ve never done something like this, or seen it done, before! Looking forward to seeing you there! Information about auditions for our upcoming show in the Summer, The Taming of the Shrew, will be available at the show. If you’re interested in what we do but don’t know if it’s for you, please come to one of these two shows! Don’t be afraid to ask questions or see what we’re about!
Tickets are limited, so it's strongly encouraged to buy one ahead of time as seats aren't guaranteed at the door. Tickets are on a first come-first serve, and on a sliding scale starting at $15 per seat, up to a suggested price of $25 per seat. Any money paid above that $15 goes towards the production costs of the show.
The performance will be held at Oshkosh Marriage and Family Therapy Center in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The address is attached to the event, and we will have banners with Rebel Alliance Theatre by the entrance.

True West Final Call
This show contains themes that may not be comfortable for all audiences – parental guidance is encouraged.
Tickets start at $18, purchase at the door or at www.ko-fi.com/rebelalliancetheatre
True West is a play by celebrated American dramatist Sam Shepard, who played a pivotal role in off-Broadway theatre development.
“You sound just like the old man, now.”
“Yeah, well we all sound alike when sloshed. We all just sort of echo each other.”
An estranged brother rolls into town, and with him the echoes of a time long past. But who’s the real stranger in this family? Austin, the Ivy league screenwriter, ten years junior to Lee—a housebreaking vagabond just back from the Californian desert. In this play uncomfortable dualities abound between and within each character: nature and nurture, art and business, fiction and reality, civilization and the frontier, beginnings and endings, brother and brother.
Rebel Alliance Theatre’s first performance following their rousing LGTBQ program aims to continue developing our staff and craft to continue bringing genuine theatre at an affordable price.
True West will be presented on Fridays (June 7th, 14th, and 21st) and Saturdays (June, 8th, 15th, 22nd). All shows start at 7PM (doors open at 6:30PM), and will be presented at First Congregational Church in Oshkosh!
