Blake Rushing got the chance to talk with Russ Martin at Brothers Broadcasting on WRIN about Fendig's 2020 season, the Fendig Theatre Experience.

Blake states, "In order to keep everyone safe, Fendig has decided to not have a full live production summer. We have gone entirely virtual with the Fendig Theatre Experience".

It is a series of YouTube videos that young artists can learn about theatre and create a final performance at the end. More information on the season can be found under our 2020 season tab on the website.
