Collective 51 Marches On!
Friday, March 15 at 8:00 PM
Each month, some of Atlanta's finest female improvisers perform 90 minutes of short-form games, scenes and things we create because you told us to. We're a rotating cast of performers, with the goal of meeting new people and to see what it's like to have a less male-dominated show not that there's anything wrong with men, of course. We love 'em!

20,000 Leagues Under The Sea Presented by Atlanta Radio Theatre Company
Saturday, March 16 at 8:00 PM
Sunday, March 17 at 2:30 PM
ARTC now brings their own take to the story of discovery, revenge, and the magic of the underwater realm with this world-premiere performance by established author and playwright Brad Strickland and audio producer David Benedict. Listeners will be truly immersed in the wonder and majesty of the sea in this live radio play!
Audiences will also be treated to examples of how the classic radio dramas were performed with actors on microphone, live Foley sound effects, and a soundscape that encourages the listener to imagine for themselves a setting they are unlikely to see in any other live theatrical show or even the biggest Hollywood blockbuster!
