Yeah, close your eyes and imagine yourself happy. C’mon. Now tell me, what do you see?

After months of preparation the Hillsboro Players will be opening their spring musical ‘All Shook Up’ this Friday March 3,2023.
All Shook Up blends some of Elvis’ most iconic songs into the story line of Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night” and blends them together to make a musical that will have you jumping out of your seats. The show is set in the 1950’s in a small conservative town in the mid west run by uptight mayor Matilda (Kate Jones) who lacks a sense for fun and adventure. Sparks fly when the handsome, “roustabout” Chad (Jeremiah Gascho) comes riding into town and immediately starts to shake things up and incite his rebellious ways on the townspeople.
What a funny little man
— Chad
Natalie Heller (Lily Phillips) is the mechanic of the town who seeks to find something meaningful in her life. When newcomer Chad rides into town she is caught by surprise and captivated by his charm. Natalie will go to great lengths to try and catch the eye of Chad after he makes it known that he does not share the same feelings as she does.
