5 months agoSaw Anastasia last weekend and thought it was fabulous! We all commented that it was such a big and quality production, it could have been seen at the FOX. The level of talent and amazing singing was truly impressive for community theater. And the price of $25 couldn’t be beat! We will definitely come again!

6 years agoThis group usually performs new (or newer) plays in the stylish .Zack Theatre, 3224 Locust Ave. Over the years, its available pool of actors has improved, and more fine directors have been added too. The result is another strong young company presenting challenging plays in St. Louis.
