Based at The Ellis, the company develops original work through collaboration among playwrights, actors, directors, and designers, creating theater that is inventive, engaging, and distinctly Hudson Valley.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/1cd3e550-a1fe-11f1-8b09-4b99f8fe4872-rimg-w592-h740-dcc8c8c8-gmir.jpg
