Congratulations to the cast and crew of "The Imaginary Invalid"

The whole Actors Ensemble of Berkeley family is immensely proud of the success of "The Imaginary Invalid On YOUR Screen" zoom production. It was a triumph technically, dramatically, and comically. All credit goes to the creative team of Meryn MacDougall (Director/Adapter) and Kaitlin Weinstein (Stage Manager and BRAINS BEHIND IT ALL), for their dogged pursuit and fantastic execution of what turned out to be such a wondrous vision. Bravo!  For information on the production click here.
