What is Rainbow Connection?​
​
LGBTQ generations celebrate life through theater
Rainbow Connection is an intergenerational summer theater program that brings LGBTQIA+ youth and older adults together to create original works of theater that examine the gay civil rights movement throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. APCG is proud to collaborate with the beloved CM Performing Arts Center in Oakdale, Long Island to develop musical theater that celebrates the importance of Cherry Grove and its community leaders and showcases queer joy.
Who are we looking for?
​
LGBTQIA+ young adults ages 16+ with a passion for the theater arts (drama, music, dance, playwriting, songwriting, comedy, costume/lights/sound/set design) and a willingness to work collaboratively with the Cherry Grove community.
What will it cost?
​
Nothing! Rainbow Connection is FREE to participants and APCG will provide complimentary ferry transportation back and forth from Cherry Grove for rehearsals and performances.
Do I have to be trained in theater or want to do theater professionally?
​
No! You just need to be passionate about theater and have a collaborative spirit.
When is this happening?
​Rainbow Connection's homage to the 50th annual Invasion of the Pines, 'Panzi: Queen of the Desert' will perform at the Cherry Grove Community Theater on Sat. July 5 at 3pm and Sun. July 6 at 8pm.
