With Broadway continually raising the bar for spectacular musicals,we con- stantly strive to meet higher audience expectations. We devote more resources to scenic elements,costumes,lighting,and talent. As an example,last season’s Sugar featured a three-time Broadway veteran in the comparatively small role of “Spats”,the tap dancing gangster - who brought a flair to the part that only twenty years’experience can bring! In Oliver! we have cast five Broadway performers in the leading roles. Our technical staff has been expanded to include a full time Scenic Designer,Technical Director,Production Manager, as well as a host of assistants and other technical pro- fessionals. It is this commitment to obtaining the best in each field that makes us continue to stand out. We will continue to bring you top-notch musical theatre you just can’t get anywhere else on Long Island. You’ve got our commitment, and we thank you for yours.
