Thank you to all who came out to celebrate Libra's one-year anniversary with Midsummer Musicals: a night of readings of four short musicals by seven fantastic composers and lyricists. Complete with a stellar cast of young performers, this was a fantastic evening of great music and great theater. We were also pleased to open the night with a special performance by Libra friend and talented singer/songwriter Amy Molewski.
