CARDINAL STAGE PRODUCTION HISTORY

Cardinal Stage Company was established in 2006 by founding Artistic Director Randy White. The organization programmed a wide range of material to compliment the diverse interests of Bloomington, Indiana and the surrounding region. Each theatrical season included a Mainstage series, Family Holiday Musical, and Cardinal for Kids series. At the time of merger, Cardinal was in its 15th anniversary season and had grown to be one of the largest arts organizations in Bloomington.
