We are happy to make arrangements for journalists wishing to cover our company via artist interviews and reviews, but ask that you not attempt to contact the artists directly. As a repertory company with an in-house scene shop, props shop, and costume shop, we are also happy to make arrangements for journalists wishing to cover any aspect of our company, including exclusive behind-the-scenes access to artists and technicians in the months leading up to our productions and events.
