Night at the Museum (Station)

We’re in a time of beautiful change to bring that light, that hope. I think if we can bring that spirit of that name into that building, maybe we’ll be able to take that step ahead and walk with it. The new building is so unique. It’s powered by nature. Much like how we live, powered by nature and the sun. The sun is such a beautiful spirit; it brings warmth, it brings growth, it brings light, it brings hope.

A Campus Finds Its Heart

September 8, 2021

Theatres closed again in 1918 for the Spanish Flu, and again in 2003 for SARS. COVID-19 isn’t the first pandemic that the theatre world has lived through. Theatres will open again. When? It’s hard to say, but when they do, they will bounce back as they have before.
