2020 Mainstage Show Line-Up
As the pandemic continues to shift our world, we too must shift with it. Quarantine has altered how we imagine theatre and we have risen to the challenge by aiming to provide engaging programming that seeks to uplift and unite us all during this time, through collaboration with Bruka Theatre and Reno Little Theater via our Ghost Light TV channel. Our leadership team is working diligently, everyday, coordinating with local and national organizations to develop a comprehensive reopening strategy.
We know that streaming is not the same, not the same as being in the space together, and perhaps you too are feeling the "screen fatigue", and are eager for the chance to return to theater and see a live performance. We are eager too - we have now reached the point in our Netflix cue where the algorithm is judging our questionable selections. However, our fervent desire to return to what we love to do, must always be tempered with caution and thoughtful consideration for the health and well-being of our audiences and our creatives. With that in mind, we don't feel it's possible to reopen the theater anytime soon. We have decided to officially cancel our productions of "Noises Off" and "Cannibal the Musical". We are postponing our production of "The Colony" with the intention of producing it next year. We are pushing back our production of "Puffs" with the hope that we will be able to mount this production in October.
These were all difficult decisions; ones that were made through numerous Zoom meetings and in consultation with other leaders in the field. We grieve the loss of many performances from this season, plays that we were excited to produce, the joy and laughter not shared, the missed collective in-take of breath at that shocking plot twist, but above all else, our opportunity to share all of these moments with you. Know that we remain fully committed to fulfilling our mission and committed to serving our community the best that we are able. Theatre is essential, now more than ever.
As always, we are forever grateful for your continued support and appreciate you being part of the GLM family. We will get through this, and on the other side we will find ourselves stronger, with a renewed vigor and passion for this business we call show. Take care of yourselves and one another. In the immortal words of the one Miss Miley Cyrus "Now I can't wait to see you again".
