Cassandra Parker-Nowicki, director of the Carver Community Cultural Center, got teary watching patrons arrive last month for “The Bad Mama Jama Remix,” the first show with a live audience there in more than a year.
“I can’t tell you how wonderful it was to have an audience in the theater again,” she said. “We’ve done things virtually, but it’s so different to have an audience with you.”
The doors of the Carver and the rest of the city’s performing arts venues and organizations largely have been closed to the public since the middle of March 2020 to stem the spread of the coronavirus.
