Wow
Not enough
Don’t see many high school plays or musicals or college level in a city that has numerous schools esp colleges
We were just in Pidgeon fire and gattlinburg Tennessee
There’s a concert in dinner theatres 4 nights a wk all over Tennessee
We lost our dinner theatres
Not counting Chanhassen
If kids don’t sign up for plays and performances anymore then open up the schools and colleges that have attached performing arts centers to any group in state or out state
We don’t count Christmas Carol nutcracker and the grinch
We seen them over 6x
Bizarre
We need to look seriously at the concept of dinner theatres
MOA is no answer
I totally agree with all of this Stacy. I would love if more high schools and colleges submitted their shows. We have a few that consistently do, but most don’t have the volunteers to do this kind of thing. However, this is a way busy parents could help out their high school theater department. Submit those HS plays and musicals and we’ll share them – year round.
I agree more dinner theater would be great. I recall that when I was in high school, we used to offer a dinner theater recital with school plays and a jazz-club style dinner with our Orchestra concerts. That is something I’d go to myself.
Please submit anything you find that is family-friendly. We’ll share.
