The curtain came down on another amazing production that I am so fortunate to have been a part of. Getting to work with the fabulous JoAnn Basist and Joey Schubert as part of the dream team is one of my favorite projects every year. This cast came so incredibly far and it was such a joy to watch the audience enjoy them so much. So proud of this entire team for their service to the arts. Thank you so much to Roxanne Amico for inviting me back! Next stop is Nazareth middle school to music direct their fall cabaret! #musicdirector

“Civic Theatre: Beyond the Stars” received a 2026 Mid-Atlantic Emmy® Nomination in the Arts/Entertainment – Short Form category! 🏆🌟

Thank you to the entire community who makes Civic Theatre so magical! 💫

Civic Theatre’s Artistic Director, William Sanders, says “FireRock captured our theatre in a way that is astonishing. The film demonstrates Civic Theatre’s invaluable role in our community.” 🎭

Theatre extends far beyond the stars and stories of the well-known, to include and validate the experiences of all people. It is needed now more than ever as it is an exercise in empathy, a skill that can be built and carried into everybody’s daily lives. 🫶

Support your neighbors, friends, & family! The magic of community theatre lies not only in the stories told on stage, but in the vibrant, interconnected community that comes together to tell them. Be a part of it in any way you can! 🙏🏻

The Mid-Atlantic Emmy® Awards will be presented Saturday, September 26, 2026, at The Philadelphia Marriott Downtown.📍
