“We felt compelled to bring to our community a performance that showcases themes of acceptance, individualism, tolerance, and inspiration. With some fun pokes at ourselves and our imperfections as humans and with the acknowledgement that we have work to do as individuals and as a society, we hope Showbiz Harmony will move you in ways that inspire you to think about the world we live in and what each of us needs to do to ensure it is a better place for future generations."
