Why PlayZoomers Online Theatre is Good for You!

“. . . the arts can fire minds, warm souls, dazzle, and delight. We will want them to be there in times ahead, for us and especially for our children. As Ashley Wheater told us, “Live art, the magic of the theatre, is one of the few things that can bring total strangers together in unique harmony, reminding us of our humanity.”
— Scott Simon, NPR, 12/12/20
