Rhode Island Monthly Votes PPAC 'Best Theatre'

Rhode Island Monthly President and CEO John J. Palumbo announced that readers voted PPAC as "Best Theatre" at last night's Best of Rhode Island® party. This is the second year that PPAC has won in the "Best Theatre" category.

J.L. "Lynn" Singleton, President of PPAC, said, "The PPAC staff makes it a top priority to provide the best theatre-going experience for our patrons every day. We are flattered that we have won this award for the second year in a row. Thank you Rhode Island Monthly readers for voting us the 'Best Theatre' in Rhode Island; it's a great recognition."
