for summer 2025! Community takes stage at Richardson Theatre Centre Founded in 1986, Richardson Theatre Centre has stood the test of time. Artistic Director Rachael Lindley attributes the nonprot organization’s longevity to two key factors.

Richardson Theatre Centre Artistic Director Rachael Lindley helps out in the costume department.

Meet the actors Lindley said RTC performers have a wide range of acting experience and are volunteers who come from all walks of life including students, business people, nurses, lawyers and more. She said the youngest performer she knows of was ve years old and the oldest, who performed in the Christmas show last year, is 92. A small per- centage of their performers only audition for RTC shows while most perform in other local theaters. “The benets are the time spent with wonderful people and making friendships and connections,” Lindley said. “Another benet is feeding your soul, getting to perform and entertaining your community.”
