If you love theatre, are new to theatre or maybe aren’t sure....I can guarantee you’ll be entertained. The productions are all top notch, from the little children’s to the young adults to the older adults....you can count on a superb production, and the best part is, they’re ALL volunteers. Truly amazing the dedication, stamina & talent they posses. The live orchestra is made up of local talent & they are amazing. The costumes & sets are fabulous. I am always wow’d by the designs. If you’re a local be sure to buy the season tickets. If you’re passing through on business or vacation, attend a performance (or better yet, plan to make SCT a stop on your trip). SCT is definitely a destination you won’t want to miss. You won’t be disappointed!!!
