Looking forward to seeing how this all came together in post-production! An ACS client had a great time participating in this show--even with the change to a virtual production. Please take time to watch this show.

NTPA STARCATCHERS:
We are excited to announce that the first virtual production of the Starcatchers goes live next weekend! Directed by Lindy Waldmeier and choreographed by Jasmine Mathew, Summer Showtunes is an original musical production done completely virtually. Keeping the arts alive in the face of a global pandemic has been challenging, but the Starcatchers have faced the challenge head on!
The performance will be available next weekend as an on demand program, meaning once you purchase a ticket you can watch the show any time that weekend.

Tickets are found here:
