Don Toner
Producing Artistic Director
Austin Playhouse

Introduction by Lion Lillie Gilligan

In the coming months, Austin Playhouse will be breaking ground on their new, permanent home in the Mueller Airport Redevelopment. The new location will allow full ownership and maintenance of their own building, provide improved working conditions for the artists and increase audience amenities.

Listen as the Playhouse's Artistic Director, Don Toner, gives us the details of the Mueller development and how it will help to support the Arts in our community.

Featured Lunch Menu: Mr. Robert has arranged to have a  seasonally appropriate turkey dinner, replete with homemade dressing which is embraced by a giblet gravy.  Cranberry sauce, fresh carrots, assorted rolls, and a field greens salad, will accompany the festive entree.   Dessert du jour will complete the lunch service.  A Caesar salad with grilled chicken or a vegetarian plate option are also available options according to Mr. Robert.

Speaker's Bio:

Don Toner, Austin Playhouse, Arts
Austin Playhouse was founded, incorporated, and chartered by the State of Texas in August of 2000. Over fifty of Austin’s leading theatre artists, administrators, and volunteers who had worked with veteran Producing Artistic Director Don Toner to build the State Theater Company (formerly Live Oak Theatre) into one of Austin’s leading arts organizations, signed on to work with him on the creation of this new professional theatre for Austin.

On November 27, 2000 Austin Playhouse was granted 501 (C) (3) status by the Internal Revenue Service.

Austin Playhouse has grown to a year-round operation with an eye to the future by becoming one of the finest Equity theaters in Austin.

Austin Playhouse is dedicated to providing opportunities for Austin artists and audiences to celebrate the human experience. Austin Playhouse will nourish your mind, delight your spirit, and enrich your life through professional productions of classic, contemporary and musical plays
