About Theatre @CBT
Founded in September of 2014, Theatre@CBT is a local non-profit community theatre group that focuses on providing accessible theatre opportunities for kids, families and adults in the Potomac, MD area. We produce high-quality shows that bring together people from our diverse local community, including those who aren’t members of our synagogue. Our volunteers range in skill level, from professional actors to those that are brand new to the stage. We often have 60+ volunteers working on our season of shows each year, which are then seen by over 1,000 audience members. According to DCMetroTheatreArts, our production of The Wizard of Oz was "thoroughly entertaining....the audience was thrilled with the imaginative stage direction and stellar performances" while our production of Peter Pan was "Something to crow about".
