Happy Retirement, Marcia!

Today is the official last day of work at Rhode Island College for Marcia Zammarelli, our long time Costume Shop Supervisor and Costume Designer. 

Over the course of her 22 year career at RIC, she has mentored 100s of students and designed over 35 shows!! The Rocky Horror Show (2019) was the the last major musical she designed for us. (Thanks, Covid!) Other favorite shows include: Present Laughter (2007), Little Foxes (2001), Leading Ladies (2017), & The Misanthrope (2003). 

Following retirement, Marcia plans to stay active in the Rhode Island theatre community and will be directing 9 to 5: The Musical for the Pawtucket Community Players this fall. 



Marcia - Thank you for everything you've done for our students and our department. Enjoy your retirement!

We are all so proud of the work that everyone has done over the past year.

Update on "The Moors"

Hello all --

A big thank you to everyone who auditioned for The Moors -- your submission tapes were excellent.

While we have permission for an in-person staged performance of this play, we are still waiting for permission to do a back-up streaming presentation, if we ultimately need to do that.

Once we have the official approval from the publishers, I will announce the cast.

Thank you for your patience -- and in the meantime, have a warm and happy summer!
