“There is no competition of sounds between a nightingale and a violin.” – Dejan Stojanovic ”A theatre’s as good a place as any for magic.” – Sherry Shonin ––––– LESLIE CRISS I discovered community theater haphazardly as a teenager. I was babysitting for my cousins whose mother was working backstage in a production. I got paid every time she had rehearsal. During one of the performances of the show, “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown,” I attended and sat with my cousins. It was my first experience with live theater, and I was mesmerized. There was no real theater with great acoustics.
