Dyersburg, Tennessee – Dyersburg State Community College’s (DSCC) Theatre Department has announced auditions for its spring production of “Mockingbird” by Julie Jensen.

The death of her brother leaves her to face the world with only her father. Jensen describes the play as “a combination of chaos and control,” as it is presented from the girl’s perspective.
The play will be presented April 6 – 8, in support of Autism Awareness Month.
