A LETTER FROM OUR ARTISTIC PRODUCER
BEAUTIFUL FROZEN
JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
ANASTASIA
CATS
WOW! We are so proud to present these Blockbuster titles in our 24/25 Season. To say that we are excited would be a colossal understatement. We are over the moon to have these mega-hit shows on our mainstage that have never been professionally presented by us before. FIVE PREMIERES. Also, we are bursting with pride to be one of a few theatres in the country lucky enough to present FROZEN in its first round of licensing. We are thrilled and humbled.
We have dreamed that one day we would grow large enough to present a season like this and we are so thankful to you, our audiences, for making that dream come true. Without your attendance and support of the arts, none of the enormous growth for us and the entire Lancaster arts scene would be possible.
That is the truth. These are not flowery words to get you to buy a subscription. Without you, we have no purpose. Every time a singer sings or a dancer dances, each time an actor tells a story, it is for our audience. Without you, there are no words, no music; we are immobile. With you, our stories ring out, we sing to the rafters and we dance. Oh, do we dance. Because of you, we live.
We hope next season will excite you and inspire you to continue your passion for live theatre.
Thank you!
Marc Robin Executive Artistic ProducerDiscoverLancaster.com/ice-cream-trail
