This rebranding of the organization not only signifies the group’s ongoing growth and development, but also its dedication to serving our vibrant community with theatrical experiences. The theater group firmly believes that this new name embraces the spirit of inclusivity, creativity and sense of play.
The group also announced its upcoming season of “hope.”
“I couldn’t be more excited about what’s ahead for FCP,” said Board President Claire Wayman. “We’re looking forward to welcoming new friends and faces both in the audition room and theater seats.
“As a 100 percent volunteer organization, we are always looking for those who want to get involved – either on stage or backstage – so we invite you to come play with us this season.”
