STAYING SAFE AND PRODUCTIVE DURING THE SHUTDOWN
We hope everyone is staying safe and healthy and doing their part in staying home. Scene-1 is excited to celebrate their 5th anniversary this weekend! We would like to thank all those artists who have attended our events over the last 5 years, growing their skills, networking with others and supporting us along the way! And thanks to our amazing instructors who came to work with our local actors like: Rachel Reiss, Erica Arvold, Matthew Maisto, Donna McKenna, Marius Bargielski, John Shea, Kim Graham, Angela Micky, Andrew Chappelle ,Christina Wright and David Grey.
