All proceeds will go directly towards funding the Capital Region Festival
of Theatre, CRFT. Begun in August of 2024, the organization's main thrust
is to offer exposure to the general community of the number of theatrical
venues and events that occur within the region throughout the year
available to all ages, races, ethnicity, and genders. This promotion of
events will culminate with an annual theater festival, this year, to be
held Friday, June 13 through Sunday, June 15 and will include participation
by many of the over 100 theater companies, 6 regional venues and 100s of
volunteers all involved in some aspect of theatrical life in the region. *All
events will be free and open to the public,* and will spread from Ft. Salem
Theater to theREP, Sand Lake Center for the Arts, Schenectady Light Opera
Company, Russell Sage College and the University at Albany.
