Community Circle Players
at Riverwalk Theatre
Jane Zussman digs deep in this original retrospective mini‑musical, interweaving stories from her lifetime on the stage with reflections on Riverwalk’s origins from the folks who were there… way back when.
Join us Friday, August 21st at 6:00pm, as we look forward to the coming season before we take a trip down memory lane.
We'll be joined by directors from the upcoming season to introduce us to their shows, as well as hear select songs from the musicals performed by local vocalists. It'll be a great time to renew your membership, sign up to be a Front of House Volunteer, or pick up a Season Flex Pass!
