River Rep Theatre

This week on Curtain Call, we shine a spotlight on River Rep Theatre with guests Christopher Peditto and Arthur Aulisi, diving into their creative process, mission, and their summer production of The Neverending Story. We explore the evolution of their company, their work with young theatre artists, and even tackle the age-old debate: is it theatre or theater? Plus, our Roving Thespian drops in on Sister Act at the Rivoli Theatre to hear what local audiences are saying. Upcoming productions, big laughs, bold imagination — and a show-stopping finale from the Sister Act London cast — it’s all here, on Curtain Call.
