An Evening of Duets 377 North Main Street Mansfield, MA 02048 508-339-2822 MMAS.ORG FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR presents An Evening of Duets Dear Patrons, Thank you for joining us tonight for An Evening Of Duets featuring Starring myself and Jennifer Mischley. Jennifer and I met back in the late 1990’s in a production of Carousel with Actor’s Collaborative. They have performed in many plays since then, and even toured Ken Butler professionally with Mel Springer as “Broadway Light”. Jennifer Mischley As you know MMAS, like many theater across the country, has been closed since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. The financial impact has been great and we are working very hard to bring back as much of a season as possible through live streaming until we can fully open our theater once again. Accompaniment MMAS is grateful for our volunteers, staff, and production teams that have pivoted and made so many adjustments to safely bring Danielle Clougher shows to life with the new technology challenges. We wish to thank you for your support of live theater and the programs MMAS brings to the community.

It is a great privilege to gather and share stories on this beautiful territory, which has been the site of human activity — and therefore storytelling — for many thousands of years.
