A throw back to some great artists!

06/30/2016

We started AUP when we were 35. We wanted to use theatre to change lives. And we did. We were crazy and clueless and gave our all to our little company. All our money, our hearts and souls, and a lot of our blood, sweat, and tears. And we, along with an amazing band of volunteers, actors, designers, family and friends had some great experiences and the opportunity to touch people's lives. We are so very proud of each production and each and everyone of you.

Henceforth, as of Brian's 40th birthday (June 29), we are announcing a change in direction for AUP. Opportunities are taking him to a different state and single parenting is keeping Beth focused on 3 teenagers. We will still be making theatre - just in a different way and in different places. We are continuing the work on Brian's adaptation of A Christmas Carol and will announce some of our other projects and ideas as they happen.

We are keeping the FB page open. Feel free to stop by as we will post periodic updates on our projects, and the projects of those we love and support.

It's opening night of URINETOWN: THE MUSICAL at Earlham College.
Join us in Runyan Center's Wilkinson Theatre at 7:30 pm Friday and/or Saturday for a hilarious satire of the legal system, capitalism, social irresponsibility, corporate mismanagement, municipal politics… and musical theatre itself. Praised for its outrageous perspective and wickedly funny wit, no one is safe from scrutiny as this meta-musical shines an irreverent spotlight on wastefulness and greed, the growing disparity between rich and poor, and climate change issues that affect us all today.
Join the cast, crew and production team for informal conversation at the Opening Night Reception in the lobby afterwards. https://www.facebook.com/events/1671955776390958/
