Overview
Mission
To promote artistic expression and community spirit through live community theatre, by producing interesting, entertaining, and cultural plays, musicals, and other forms of entertainment for our public to encourage creative effort in theatre arts. We train actors, directors, producers, and technical personnel. As a community-based organization, we also provide support to other civic organizations and charitable needs by donating time, talent, expertise, materials and equipment. We provide a safe and much needed outlet for the community to interact, learn, and practice the performing arts at no cost.
What it reported doing in 2024
Stage crafters presented a total of 24 performances during the year as part of its mission to provide quality community theater. The season featured four mainstage productions: brighton beach memoirs, the mousetrap, the naked truth, and a gentleman's guide to love and murder. These performances engaged the local community, supported local talent, and promoted the performing arts.
Operating model
