LIVE THEATRE RETURNS TO LUTHER |
"The most essential component of live theatre is not the lights, the costumes, the music, or even the actors. It is the audience. While we can all be proud of the creative ways we've found to connect during this pandemic, this time left us knowing without a doubt what we need in order to kindle the magic so unique to theatre." - Robert Vrtis, Associate Professor of Theatre
