They have had great success with virtual classes, seminars, and productions like A Christmas Carol, and the Ghost Light Concert, but there is nothing quiet like LIVE theatre. Well the long wait for live theatre will be coming to an end soon.
Quincy Community Theatre announced on their Facebook page today that they will be bringing LIVE theatre back to their stage in the form of a one woman show called The Belle of Amherst coming April 2021. In the Facebook post they say.

Want to Become an Actor?
Have you ever wanted to learn Acting? Here is your chance!
I have been acting on stage for over 20 years, I started in elementary school when I was only in 3rd grade. I fell in love with getting to become someone else and tell a story for people to watch and enjoy. I loved it so much I actually got a degree in acting, a BFA in Acting from Northern Illinois University, I acted professionally in Chicago before deciding to pursue a career in radio which lead me to 97.9 KICK-FM and Quincy. I had no idea that Quincy was lucky enough to have an INCREDIBLE community theatre program led by an extremely talented staff. So I want everyone out there young and old to know that if you have ever wanted to try your hand at acting that there is a class for you to take at QCT!

The blood drive will take place on Wednesday, Feb. 10 from 1 pm - 6 pm at The Atrium Hotel on Third (located at 201 S. 3
rd Street in Quincy). Due to the COVID vaccines and testing site at the Oakley-Lindsay Center, the move of the blood drive is to have a safe place to donate blood for those in need, and not be in the way of the COVID vaccinations.
According to Laura Sievert, Arts Quincy Executive Director,
“Our team is ranked in the top one percent out of 46,000 teams in the nation!” Sievert said. “This partnership between the American Red Cross, Arts Quincy, Quincy Community Theatre and Quincy Noon Kiwanis gives the creative community a chance to help patients receive the lifesaving blood they urgently need. For each blood donation, you can save up to three lives!”
