Clearwater Theatre Collective
Clearwater Theatre Collective Membership Information
Stephen Raschke, Artistic Director
If you have gotten to this point, you likely have some interest in becoming part of a theatrical event or theatrical group. Well, we have a place for you to do something. As you may have surmised, CTC has been inactive since Covid, but for some time now, it’s been my intention to get CTC up and running somehow; however, I needed some way to do it. Well, the NTAC website is the way; this invitation is the how and right now is the time.
If it is the right time for you, read on.
Since many past members have lost contact or moved on, we will be building from the ground up. The CTC nor any past community theatre groups wouldn’t have had such a complete organization committee, but one can always dream.
