Golly gee, folks! We sure hit a bump in the broadcast road with those pesky technical difficulties during our swell SummerStock-A-Thon.

It was rougher than a tumble in the old corral! But hang onto your saddle, 'cause we've wrangled those gremlins and got our livestream back on track.

So grab your popcorn, put on your poodle skirts and letterman jackets, and let's jitterbug our way back to the fun! Ain't no glitch gonna rain on our parade, no siree! 📺🎙️🌟

Brava, Impact Arts, and thank you, Susan Kroman Morris, for capturing this moment of Harmony. 📷

ID: Adam, dressed in a blue top, jean shorts, and white shoes, conducting the 2022 Summer Stock Austin company in “Sunday” at last week’s event in Pease Park, Austin.
Thank you SummerStock Austin and Impact Arts for inviting us to run sound for your final summer event of 2022! These performers are INCREDIBLE!

There’s still time to come see the show at 7:30pm at Pease Park in downtown Austin. Visit their fb page for more info!
WOW! Awesome job to the cast and production team of ’s “Alice’s Wonderland” at Impact Arts! 🪞❤️

That rabbit hole was rockin’ nonstop this afternoon, and Victor Villalobos & I had the best time. ⏱

Ginger Elise Morris always compiles an incredible slate of artists and offerings at Summer Stock Austin, and this season’s Impact Arts lineup is no exception. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

J. Quinton Johnson is a longtime friend and shooting star in his own right. You’ve caught him onscreen in multiple features and in Broadway’s Hamilton; now you can (and should!) check out the fruits of his writing brain with Alice’s Wonderland! 🪞

Only a few shows remain… visit impactarts.org for those 🎟.
It’s a sultry 96,000 degrees at Austin’s McCullough Theatre tonight as the incredible cast and production team of Impact Arts’ “In the Heights” take their opening bow. 🔥

Felicidades to one and all in Washington Heights!🗽 Now go heat up that stage.

Calling all creatives, budding artists, thespians, and anyone who enjoys musicals! Impact Arts Summer Stock Austin is back in a big way. Now in its 17th season, this program hopes to bring the Austin community more diverse programming and untold stories. Ginger Morris and Jordan Williams joined Trevor Scott with details about the fun summer ahead.
Wouldn’t it be amazing if all participating theatres met their Amplify goal this year? Hyde Park Theatre is aiming for a $25,000 goal, Summer Stock Austin has a goal of $7,000 through the nonprofit Impact Arts, and TILT Performance Group is hoping for 75 donors to donate $5. There’s a little less than 6 hours left!
