SAUTEE, Ga. — The Sautee Nacoochee Center is inviting performers, artists, and creatives of all kinds to take part in SOLfest 2026, an outdoor performing arts festival that transforms the center’s sprawling campus into a living stage.
The featured production, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, returns after a wildly popular run last year. Shakespeare’s classic comedy, filled with romance, magic, and mischief, will unfold across the 8½-acre property, with audiences moving from scene to scene for a fully immersive theater experience.
To build the production, the center is hosting an open Talent Inventory on March 7. Organizers stress this is not an audition; anyone willing to commit to rehearsals and performances will have a place in the show, whether on stage or behind the scenes. Opportunities are available for performers, designers, technicians, and volunteers of all ages and experience levels.
The session will be held in the Community Hall and will give participants a preview of the collaborative production process while connecting with fellow creatives.
Those interested are encouraged to RSVP at SauteeNacoocheeCenter.org.
The Talent Inventory runs from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. A production orientation meeting is scheduled for April 18, with rehearsals beginning May 5. Performances are set for June 12–14 and June 19–21.
For more information or to volunteer, contact Performing Arts Director Jenna Scaramuzzo at jscaramuzzo@snca.org or call 706-878-3300 ext. 303.
Located at 283 Highway 255 North, the Sautee Nacoochee Center is a member-based nonprofit serving White and Habersham counties and the broader Northeast Georgia region.
