Adult Audience Enrichment

Curious about why and how we choose plays for a season?  Want to peak behind the scenes and see how a true repertory theatre works?  Want to be immersed in the world of a play before the curtain even rises?  We would like to share with you what makes us tic.  Our Adult Audience Enrichment opportunities give you the chance to connect with CRT in a deep and meaningful way.  Join us this summer for a pre-show talk, a backstage tour, or a Boomtown Improv Comedy Workshop.

Pre-Show Talks

Designed to immerse you in the world of the play before the curtain rises, these entertaining talks explore the historical context of the play, essential themes, significance the play holds for CRT, and challenges faced during production. Talks are free of charge and occur 30 minutes prior to select shows. Dates and times are listed in the season schedule. Please join us!

Backstage Tours

What surprises are lurking in the wings?  What happens backstage before the curtain comes up?  Who controls the lights and sound?  Your questions will be answered during one of our backstage tours.  Tours begin in the CRT Main Stage Lobby at 1pm on the first Saturday of each Month (June-Sept).  To schedule a tour at a different time, please contact Jonathan Allsup at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
