Performance Network Theatre Comes Back to Life

Stage Directions: Peformance Network Theatre, which announced its immediate suspension of operations at the end of May, is returning to life “after a short reorganizational hiatus.” Part of that reorganization includes the naming of John Manfredi, a longtime actor, director and producer at PNT, to the position of executive director, with Suzi Regan taking over as artistic director. They will be leading a “much reduced” staff, which will now be comprised entirely of part-time employees, volunteers and interns. They will reveal more about their three-year plan to retire the theatre’s debt during two open houses on Sunday, July 27.

Even though, this company went down and now is trying to regain what it had lost. I think it is good for people to see how hard work can help anyone in need. How they say they have a plan and open houses coming up is wonderful to hear that they are truly trying to get this place up and running. They are really trying to bring this theater back to life and having this sorted out helps show it. I also think by seeing people that have been in theater their whole lives or associated with theater their whole life starting this up again. I think it takes a person that is passionate about something to make it truly work. Also by giving up their time and energy to get this place running is inspiring. By reading this article you can truly see how someone is trying to keep a theater alive for all ages to come.
