A Smashing Success: 2023 Shakespeare, Murder Mystery, and on we go!

We’re so grateful for the many hard-working volunteers who bring us these amazing annual events! Shakespeare in South Park was a rousing success with A Midsummer Night’s Dream; The Murder Mystery Home Tour hit it out of the park with Trigger Mortis: A Gangster’s Revenge. And into fall/winter we go, with more events for South Park neighbors.
