Other Items To Note:
Short North Stage creates shows in a historic Vaudeville theater that is over 100 years old. This old building can come with it’s quirks and it should be noted that you do have to use stairs and go outside to reach the backstage area. We are working to continue to make upgrades to this building that we lease when able.
