Dear Friends,
Narrows Community Theater (NCT) is now in its 18th season. Throughout the years we have prided ourselves on bringing quality theater to Bay Ridge at affordable prices. Since we are a non-profit organization, we are dependent on the support of you, our audience, friends and supporters - for the continuation of our endeavors.

Thanks to your past support we have been able to offer such productions as : "Anything Goes", "Mame", "Hello Dolly", "Beauty and the Beast", "Man of La Mancha", and "Christmas Dream " (an original) to name a few.

One group that has enabled us to stay afloat, are the merchants in the neighborhood. THese community minded people generously support us through our journal ads. Please take a moment to glance through the journal and patronize these merchants as well as mentioning that you saw their ad in this journal.

You, our audience, our Very Important People .. it is for you that we present this and all our productions .. so take a bow ... accept our thanks ... now, sit back, relax and let us take you on a trip down Memory Lane .. the Andrew Sisters ... War-Time Romances and the Train Canteen. Enjoy a glimpse of those crazy, wonderful days when the focus of the war was, for a time OVER HERE!!!.
Cathi Mae Johnston
