On this final episode of season two, The Divas wax nostalgia over a season brimming over with productivity and ingenuity. The Bay Area Theatre Community persisted and so did Creatively Shaded! Gratitude was expressed, theatre seats were assessed, and teases of what to expect in season three, were sprinkled for a taste. Pull up and get ready to get satiated in flavor!

Have a wonderful Holiday Season! We'll see you in 2026!
