Let's gather together, share our thoughts, and enjoy the magic of theatre in a safe, communal setting. No acting experience required, just bring your enthusiasm and love for the stage. See you there!

What the Dickens by Matthew Austin

When a group of community theater actors are tasked with performing 'A Christmas Carol', entirely from memory, things go hilariously awry. It's Monty Python meets Charles Dickens, in this fast paced homage to a holiday classic.
