For each of the years that I have been President of RMRT I have worked hours to prepare a Presi- dent’s message that fills half a page in each years playbill. My guess is that only a quarter of you read that message in its entirety. This year I have decided to keep it very simple and therefore I have four things to tell you.

1. We, the Board of Trustees and our Staff, work very hard 12 months of the year to bring you the best in musical theatre.

2. We truly appreciate your support (in whatever form that may be) for without you this not-for- profit organization could not exist.

3. We are very glad that you joined us today, to sit amongst your friends, as part of our RMRT family.

4. We hope you Enjoy the Show! RMRT President 49 and counting...... Judy K. Jensen - President RMRT

Our Mission Rocky Mountain Repertory Theatre’s mission is to stimulate, promote and develop interest in the performing arts in Grand County, Colorado, and the surrounding region through live theatrical productions and youth theatre educational workshops.
