The Actors Fund

 

Dear Actors Fund Friends,

It wasn't that long ago that we were embracing the warm sun after a long winter. Now the dog days of summer are nearly upon us. Next thing we know, we'll be admiring the changing leaves. Even now, the world around us is constantly changing.

It's in that spirit that we bring to you stories of transition this week. You'll have a chance to hear stories about real people moving from stage to screen, and fictional demons moving between planes of existence. Plus, a theater shuttered by the pandemic opens its doors once again.

We hope you can join us, and thank you for continuing to support a life in the arts.
