Bright Lights, Big City celebrates creating art as a means of processing what life throws at us.

This production is performed by students in the Theatre Arts programs of the College with direction by Tom Wojtunik, choreography by Joshua Bergasse, music direction by Darren Cohen, scenic design by Rob Monaco, costume design by Michele Sinacore, lighting design by Amanda Rosen, sound design by Ido Levran, and voice and text coaching by Lisa Rochelle.
