On-Campus Happenings
Drop by People's Light now through Halloween to see the outside of our Leonard C. Haas stage decked out for Halloween! Our production team went all out creating supersized versions of the spooktacular decorations in their series of DIY craft tutorials.
If your little ones are missing trick-or-treating, check out our Dance Days on the Lawn Halloween Special on October 31! Part of our fall theatre school, this socially-distanced dance activity is designed for 5-7 year olds and their families. Learn more here.

And the winner is...
Actually, two winners will be announced on Monday, November 2nd!
The People’s Choice, chosen by online public voting, receives $100 worth of gift cards to some of our favorite stores. The People's Light Choice, chosen by our very own production team, receives $100 worth of People's Light and Farmhouse treats. The Farmhouse is offering outdoor dining through the fall (including Acoustic Fridays with music) as well as contactless takeout, but you can also redeem your prize in the spring – our gift cards never expire.
And of course, both winners get major bragging rights!
