Information AboutGoodspeed Opera House |
|
The Goodspeed Musicals group, as well as the Goodspeed Opera House, state that they are "Dedicated to the preservation and advancement of musical theatre and the development of new works to add to the repertoire" and to "rethinking, restoring and revitalizing America’s musical theatre heritage." To help them in their on-going projects, Goodspeed utilizes the Norma Terris Theatre , in nearby Chester, Connecticut , to develop new musical projects and work with new artists. Several original plays debuted here or at the opera house before going on to Broadway and winning Tony Award s. The opera house complex is home to the Max Showalter Center For Musical Theatre Education , which offers internships and new writers' residency programs, as well as the Scherer Library Of Musical Theatre , which houses the largest musical theatre research facility in the United States. Tours for any of the Goodspeed facilities can be scheduled in advance for a small fee. Tickets to the opera house or theatre productions can only be ordered in advance. EXTERNAL LINK |
