Time is running out to vote for for the 2021 BroadwayWorld Pittsburgh Awards! The 2021 Regional Awards honor productions which had their first performance between October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021.

A Theatre finds out that they will no longer be able to use the space they perform. As they are going into tech week for one of their final shows in their former home, a pandemic hit, causing the production to be shut down and ultimately canceled. Over the next year and a half, the community gets behind said theatre company and helps with raising funds, finding a new building, and building a new theatre in the space, and it is able to be opened right in time for the holidays.

 The holidays will be played for laughs when Muskegon Civic Theatre stages the zany comedy 'Every Christmas Story Ever Told (and then some).'

On Saturday, October 30, PICT Classic Theatre will present their first live, in-person performance following the COVID-19 shutdown: William Shakespeare's As You Like It.
