SAPA (Scarborough Academy of Performing Arts) is Scarborough’s non-profit performing company that trains the actors that portray our Royal Court, Villagers, and Peasants. They go through 8 Saturdays and Sundays of classes prior to Scarborough Renaissance Festival’s opening and then entertain our guests for another 8 weekends of the festival. Many of the performers also do programs for schools, libraries, and other organizations year around.
Auditions for the 2022 Season will be held January 22nd and 23rd in the morning and afternoon at the Waxahachie Civic Center. If you are interested in joining our performing company, please fill out the following form and someone will be in contact with you with further information.
