Greetings from President & CEO, Ken Stein






              2018 Board of Directors          Dear Members:
                   Dana Amendola               We hope you enjoy this latest digital version of our InLeague
                Disney Theatrical Group        magazine. I was about to wish everyone a Happy New Year,
                    Randy Cohen                but then I realized it’s already March. I guess I lost track of time
                 Americans for the Arts        because there is just so much going on within the League as
                    Molly Fortune              evidenced by the flurry of activity on the LHAT-CHAT Network.  If
                Newberry Opera House           you are not utilizing that benefit, you might want to reconsider.
                   Jeffrey W. Gabel            If you can’t remember how to access the LHAT- CHAT, please
                   Majestic Theater            reach out to Tisha Shelden at tisha@lhat.org.

                    Brian Phoebus              overwhelming number of competitive venues in the Live Music
