ATWS Podcast #75: PRiMA's Mitch Nugent and Pat Kautter

PRiMA - Music of West Side StoryPRiMA is a performing arts company in Lancaster made up of artists who believe the arts are at their best when they enrich your life while speaking your language and jabbing at the status quo. Mitch Nugent and his wife, Diana Nugent, founded the company a few years ago and have been bringing fresh and relevant performing arts to Lancaster ever since. Mitch, along with choreographer Pat Kautter joined me at the Wood Stove House to talk about the history of the company and their upcoming performance, The Music of West Side Story starring Tony-nominated Broadway star Josephina Scaglione.
The show runs twice starting later this week on September 9th and then again on September 16th and the Ware Center in downtown Lancaster. Visit PRiMA’s website for more about the company and all of their productions.
