Theater Resources Unlimited Celebrates Fifth Year of Weekly Community Gatherings

Theater Resources Unlimited (TRU), a leading network for developing theater professionals, is celebrating the fifth year of its weekly Community Gatherings, which have been running non-stop since April 17, 2020. With more than 250 conversations held to date, the free Friday sessions continue to serve as a dependable haven for artists, offering both practical guidance and a supportive community.

Originally created in response to the COVID-19 shutdown, the Community Gatherings have evolved into an ongoing forum where artists and producers meet each week to exchange ideas, share stories, and strengthen connections. The gatherings are held every Friday at 5 p.m. ET via Zoom.

On September 19, TRU will host More Stories from the Trenches: Behind the Scenes at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, featuring Claire Feuille and Josh Dooley of Feuille Dooley Productions, publicist Michelle Mangan, Peter Michael Marino, and Molly Morris of Ghostlight Global. The panel will provide an insider’s perspective on producing at the Edinburgh Fringe, covering topics such as publicity, development, and choosing the right projects for the festival.

Registration is free for TRU members and open to non-members, who are asked to consider supporting the organization through donations, ticket purchases, or membership. To register for a session and receive the Zoom link, visit truonline.org/tru-community-gathering.
