January 2025 brings us to our annual variety show fundraiser, Celebrate UP! Our theme this year is: The Gift of Entertainment!! If you have an "act", a song, a dance, a novel creative talent or anything that is is entertaining and would be fun in a variety show, please contact us as soon as possible, as we are working on this show.

In March, Brittni Kather takes the helm as the director of Damselfly: The Diana Brookins Story, a story about medical error in time for International Patient Safety Week. MAME: Mothers Against Medical Error is a sponsor and we have openings for sponsors for this very important and timely production.

We are always looking to expand and we'd love to have you join our team, advisory board and Friends of UP!

Our way of doing theater has been a life saver to many thru the hard years of covid and other life disruptions. We remain committed to the value of what we do and hope you see it that way too.

Kindest regards,

Kim Sandstrom and Jan Thomas co-founders of Unboxed Productions.
