MANSFIELD - For months, theater fans have been scouring The Show Must Go On s YouTube channel, watching Matthew Morrison sing in a green suit and tuning into Instagram Live for live performances.
Mansfield s Renaissance Theatre has changed the way its patrons can watch performances.
After watching theaters across the nation head to Zoom for performances, Renaissance Theatre took a different approach: a film.
Hosted drive-ins and outdoor concerts
Due to COVID-19, the theater had to shut down, but still wanted to perform for the community. It hosted drive-ins and outdoor concerts to continue its presence in the area.
