Shadowbox Live

Beyond thankful for the opportunity to host this year’s Theatre Roundtable Awards Ceremony. Very rarely do we get the chance to brush shoulders with so many talented and respected working artists. A huge congratulations goes out to everyone honored at the event, especially our very own Jimmy Mak and Katy Psenicka for their recognition and awards for Sleepy Hollow: An American Ghost Story.

It was a pleasure to have such an enthusiastic bunch join us for the holidays. See you next year!

Our longstanding partnership with Columbus State Community College applies the cumulative study of American Sign Language (ASL) to the process and purpose of live art. This year’s class of ASL students was brought in this week to meet and rehearse with the cast of Holiday Hoopla. These aspiring artists were given one last crack at honing their craft before taking the stage for real next week, when they’ll evolve from interpreter to performer before Columbus audiences. Witness the two-night ASL Showcase, showing as part of our Wednesday (12/11) and Thursday (12/12) performances of Holiday Hoopla. Reservations required. Visit Shadowboxlive.org for more information.

Our hearts are filled with gratitude for the vibrant community that supports our passion for the performing arts. And today—#GivingTuesday—we ask that you join us on our mission to use that passion to shape a more humane world. ? Provide free performances for Goodwill & ARC Industries clients ?
