The News Advance has reported that a new theater company has launched in Lynchburg- the James River Theatre Company co-founded by Maggie Hendrix and Christina Crouch.

Check out the full story HERE.

Hendrix shared:

"One of the things that we both started seeing was that there was a lack of women-led theater...A lot of times, you don't see women directors, or costumers, stage managers, running crew, etc. We really wanted to give women a voice here in Lynchburg, an opportunity for them to flourish in a place that's safe for them to do so."

The company's first production will be William Shakespeare's comedy, "Much Ado About Nothing," opening November 6.
