Breaking Radio Silence - The Atlanta Radio Theatre Company Newsletter

Greetings everyone and welcome to the ARTC newsletter, published on or around the first Tuesday of each month!  The purpose of a newsletter is to bring news, so let’s begin with news about…

Live Performances:
ARTC’s next live performance will be at the Academy Theatre where we will present The Last Dragon to Avondale (also on Audible.com) by Thomas E. Fuller.

Here’s the gory details:

March 27 at 8:00pm
March 28 at 2:30pm
Musical Guest: Rooke!
Tickets: $10

This will be a benefit performance for the Georgia Aquarium where 25% of our ticket sales will go to their 4R program!

In The Last Dragon to Avondale, Thomas E. Fuller told a story of suspense and mystery, creating a sense of fear in the audience as an unlikely circumstance leads to a novel conclusion.  In so doing, however, he also examined the plight of the endangered species and what unique adaptations they might be forced to exhibit to continue their very survival.

  ARTC is pleased to benefit the Georgia Aquarium in their own study of endangered species and species survival through the 4R Program by contributing 25% of total ticket sales to this cause.

Also joining us for these performances will be special musical guest, Rooke.  Performing rarely these days, they’re an endangered species in their own right.

 

Also included in this performance will be The House Across the Way by Kelley S. Ceccato and Rory Rammer, Space Marshal: The Colour of the Outsider over the Mountain of Madness out of Space and one or two other surprises as well!
