We recently launched a new community theatre podcast called "Your Neighborhood Stage". Each episode we tackle a topic of interest to community theatre, spotlight a community theatre organization, highlight a particular play or musical, and list some of the shows recently released for community theatre productions.
 
We are always looking for listener input, and want to interview groups from across the country.
 
You can find "Your Neighborhood Stage" on iTunes or other podcast directories. You can also download the episodes directly at http://www.NeighborhoodStage.com 

If you would like to nominate your community theatre organization to be our "spotlight" orgranization, email me at chris@neighborhoodstage.com.

 
Come join us!
