The End of Charleston Stage Company

   Sad news is running through the local theatre community as reports through social media sites indicate that the board of the Charleston Stage Company has voted to shut down that organization.

   Apparently the group will offer a special performance on June 29 as part of FestivAll, it'll offer its summer camps, and then it'll close shop.

   It's a shame because the group has done such excellent work over the years, and it's been willing to tackle edgier shows - every vibrant arts community needs that. 

   This is shaping up to be a tough year for local theatre, as both CSC and Huntington Outdoor Theatre take their final bows.
