Greetings!

 

This year's Casino Night Fundraiser was such a success! More than 80 people came out to join us at All Saints' Episcopal Church to play games, bid on prizes, and enjoy the music and magic. Thanks to the event we managed to raise more than $10,000 to support the activities here at Dragon Productions Theatre! We'd like to thank all of our sponsors, attendees, and volunteers for their continued support. In a time when corporate giving and grants are drying up, it means so much to have the strong support of fans like you.

You can see photos of the event and stay up to date with all of Dragon's goings-on by joining us on Facebook!

As for Sister Cities, which opens this week, we're so thrilled to have the support of playwright Colette Freedman on opening night. We think this is a fantastic gem of a play and hope that you join us in October for the show.

Grateful for all your support,

Meredith Headshot

Sister Cities by Colette Freedman

 

Sister Cities artCarolina, Baltimore, Dallas, Austin. These four sisters are from different fathers, different corners of the country, and different perspectives, and they must reunite after their mother's abrupt death. What unfolds is a comic but heartfelt look at the ties that really bind.
