ARENA RESTAGED PART ONE: 2008/09
home  |  the season  |  2008/09
A TWO-YEAR, MULTI-VENUE FESTIVAL OF AMERICAN VOICES

There are moments in time that define an organization and cause people to declare proudly that they were part of something big. In our long and memorable history, our audience has celebrated several of these moments as part of the Arena family. Together we are about to embark on another defining moment at Arena Stage—the launch of Arena Restaged, a multi-venue, two-year festival of American voices leading up to the opening of the Mead Center for American Theater.
