Nieces and Nephew all saw first shows here when very young. They are all avid theatre goers and arts patrons (and one niece works for the National Endowment for the Arts!) Glad to have had a part in their arts education along with our MANY students, alum, colleagues.

Very proud to be and alumna and to keep up with our alumni.
