Auburn Area Community Theatre is starting the engine on their 19th season with a show unlike any other, the all-American musical "Hands on a Hardbody." The show will open on August 5th and run for two weekends, closing on August 14th.

Based on the real-life documentary by the same name, this musical centers around a days-long endurance contest where one person will win a Nissan Hardbody pick-up truck by keeping a hand on it the longest. Each contestant has their own vision of the American dream that winning the truck can bring them. A new lease on life is so close they can touch it, but if you let go - you lose! This modern musical is driven by various musical styles with tuneful melodies and soulful lyrics. 

Performances will take place on August 5th, 6th, and 11th-13th at 7:00 p.m., and on August 7th and 14th at 2:00 p.m.

Tickets are $15 for adults and $12 for students and seniors. To purchase tickets click here.
