I am so proud to share the directing teams for our fantastic 19/20 season. This is a diverse group of artists from all over the corridor who share a relentless passion for making plays and musicals. These directors, music directors, choreographers, coaches, and conductors each possess unique strengths, experiences, and perspectives on the art of making theatre. Take a moment to click on their bios and learn a bit more about them. Then, mark your calendars with audition dates! Watch the website and follow us on facebook for audition requirements, script checkout information, etc. This season is going to be a complete thrill and we hope you will join us!
