About the Show

Charlie Brown and the entire Peanuts gang explore life’s great questions as they play baseball, struggle with homework, sing songs, swoon over their crushes and celebrate the joy of friendship.

Through the Generations

Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and the rest of the Peanuts gang have been part of American culture for decades. From first-time fans to lifelong devotees, these characters connect us across ages, and this season, we’re celebrating that legacy with a special Through the Generations casting!

One Show. Three Casts. Three Generations.

We’re casting:

  • Gen X (born 1965–1980)

  • Millennials (born 1981–1996)

  • Gen Z (born 1997–2008)

(Dates are approximate. Auditioners must be 18+.)

Each cast will rotate performances and present a total of four shows. When not performing, cast members will support the production by working backstage.

Whether you grew up watching A Charlie Brown Christmas or discovered the Peanuts gang more recently, this is your chance to bring a timeless classic to life!
