We strongly support LGBTQ and BLM, and all alternative communities. We work to highlight the positive role diversity plays in Central Wisconsin.

Original Content
Performing at Point PRIDE, our fearless actors wrote and created a very personal and giving piece about the wonderfully human struggle with BODY POSITIVITY, acceptance, and individual journeys to get there.
Support artists and celebrate bodies!
(And we added a little Time Warp there at the end!)
