About CFCArts Theatre
In 2015, Central Florida Community Arts launched the first full season of the Theatre Program. Different than the Summer Broadway Series, the year-round Theatre program is housed in a small Blackbox Theatre setting, giving patrons a more intimate, in-your-face theatrical experience. CFCArts Theatre, under the direction of Donald Rupe, seeks to produce Theatre that appeals to a wide variety of audiences. In each production, our director looks for a fresh perspective in already established plays and musicals. The second season of CFCArts Theatre will begin in August with Man of La Mancha, followed by Metamorphoses, Godspell, A Few Good Men, Almost, Maine, and we will end the season with the hit musical Once I Laughed written and directed by Donald Rupe.
