Sparta - The Completely Mobile Theatre Company, a local non-profit professional theatre company, is producing a Christmas ecumenical theater production with the help of the Christian churches of Sussex County, and Orange County, N.Y.

The production, a full scale, Broadway-type musical is called “Two From Galilee” and will be produced at the Lycian Theater in Sugar Loaf, N.Y and the McNeice Auditorium in Sparta, during this Christmas Season. Invitations to participate in this event were sent to 282 churches in the two counties. The cast for the production will consist of 75 people and will require another 20 people to help with costumes, sets, lighting and sound and other technical positions. Auditions for the production will be in three cities throughout the two county area.
