SUMMARY:CATA: Gala and Annual Performance
DESCRIPTION:The CATA Annual Performance weekend begins with a Gala evening with a cocktail reception\, followed by a performance\, then dinner and dancing. Community Access to the Arts (CATA) presents its Annual Performance The Ripple Effect. CATA’s Annual Performance is the culmination of hundreds of performing arts workshops that serve 1\,300 people with disabilities across Berkshire and Columbia counties. CATA artists explore new interests and build skills in CATA arts programs throughout the year\, then share their creativity with the community in this dynamic event. Artists with developmental and intellectual disabilities have shaped every aspect of the show\, with more than 100 CATA artists from across the Berkshires contributing to the performance. CATA artists created original performance pieces in dance\, theater\, music\, juggling\, comedy\, and more—composing original songs\, devising choreography\, and crafting scripts and theater scenes. Behind the scenes\, CATA artists built the set\, made the costumes\, and designed the sound and lighting. A family-friendly Matinee Performance takes place on Sunday\, May 10\, at 1 p.m.\, followed by a free Cast & Community Party. Matinee tickets are available through the Shakespeare & Company box office. For more information\, call CATA at (413) 528-5485.
