Lots of our audience members come from far away. It can be a bit of a drive to come all the way from DC or Philly just to see a short play and have some fire circle time.
We’ve assembled a list of other things going on in the area during our productions, so you can plan a whole weekend of fun. We’re not affiliated with any of these events, they just look like a good time.
