2020 – A year with “pandemic” proportions!

Due to the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic we were unable to present some of our productions this year.  Don’t worry, as we are just taking an intermission! Live theatre will be back when it is safe to do so and we look forward to when we can share our stage with you once again!
