Ep 426- The Saunders Family Discuss Creating Spectra Theater!

Creators connect on TikTok, friends connect on Facebook, and business professionals connect on LinkedIn. Now, at last, theater people have an online community of their own: www.spectra.theater (not dot.com, but dot.theater). The new online community is the new digital front door for American theater-makers, and it’s a game-changer. For the first time, the American Theater Community can connect on a single online platform that puts live theater at the forefront, encouraging exploration of past and currently running productions, fostering collaboration, and fueling the next generation of theatrical work. It’s more than a resource, more than a library, and more than just theater. Spectra.Theater invites users to explore the incredibly rich tapestry of theater productions and the artists that have contributed to them. A virtual watering hole for all corners of the theater community, www.spectra.theater is where theater-makers can engage with all past and present theatrical work, inspiring artists new and seasoned to create for the future. Veteran Broadway artists, aspiring performers, regional theater creators, student thespians, and every kind of theater-maker in between are invited to engage with the largest resource for American Theater data, register their current and upcoming projects, expand their network, and become an early adopter of this innovative technology. An invaluable resource, www.spectra.theater is already the most comprehensive resource for data about American Theater, directly connecting past, current and upcoming Broadway and Off-Broadway productions to communities that have licensed the same play. www.spectra.theater is an expansive, online hub that serves all kinds of theater-makers across America. For more information visit www.Spectra.Theater.
