In case you missed it...

Abbey Crawford, Robby French, director Troy Nickerson, music director Carol Miyamoto, and producer Chris Jensen dropped by Spokane Public Radio this week to share a preview of our first concert, The Art of the Possible: Songs for a Marginally Less Terrible World, which opens TONIGHT!

Abbey sings "But the World Goes 'Round," then Troy and Chris talk about the concept behind the show, followed by Robby's rendition of "Beautiful City" from Godspell.

We sat down with Henry McNulty at Spokane Public Radio to talk about The Art of the Possible: Songs for a Marginally Less Terrible World — including a preview of the concert itself, with Abbey Crawford singing "But the World Goes 'Round" and Robby French singing "Beautiful City" from Godspell.

Director Troy Nickerson and producer Chris Jensen also talk about where this show came from, and our modest hope: that for a couple of hours, people leave feeling marginally less terrible than when they walked in.
