Special Events
New times bring us new ways to connect with our audiences and give you experiences beyond the stage performances!
Virtual Town Halls
Each production will hold a free, online Town Hall conversation with the director, designer, and cast of the show. Virtual Town Halls take place on Zoom, and are advertised on our Facebook page. Invitations are also sent to members of our email list.
Talkbacks
Audience questions and answer sessions during the performance runs. These free Talkbacks with the cast and director will take place on Zoom. You do not need to have seen that matinee performance to be a part of the action!
