Roll up those sleeves, Raiders! 😼😼🫧🧹

Join the team! We’re looking for volunteers for short clean-up hours, help join the fun and do your part to keep our beautiful building in the best condition!
No more dirty floors…. Please……… please…..
UNDERSTUDIES MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND!!!!!! 📖📕 + 🗽🍹 = 💫🌟⭐️
Guys. Two amazing shows are gonna be up in FULL swing this weekend, with HISTORY BOYS taking the main stage by STORM!!!!
NY is entering its second weekend, (nearly sold out!!) while HB is having its OPENING WEEKEND TOMORROW!!!! WOOO 🥳🥳
Both casts these past weeks completed their understudy runs, and we cannot be more proud of them both. These students took on entire tracks of their show ON TOP OF potentially having a track of their own to learn?? It’s no easy work, trust us.
Not only did you do your productions justice by supporting them and ensuring their longevity, but you all brought independent flair and personality to the story by making these characters your own. Bravo, x10000.
