Entertaining the Troops...
Feelings like this quote, attributed to Broadway playwright and Costumer Howard Crabtree, along with a need to continually raise funds, led to the creation of SNAP! Productions. For the past eight years, SNAP! Productions has presented Omaha with high quality, ground-breaking theatre promoting AIDS awareness and diversity tolerence.
Incorporated as a non-profit organization, SNAP!'s future plan calls for a home of it's own one day. "Support has been phenomenal," said David Catalan, one of SNAP!'s founders, commenting on both the talent involved in the productions and the "loyal and supportive audience" that attends them. "Theater brings therapy in a meaningful way without regard to traditional boundaries."
Quality, professionalism, and sensitivity are goals that SNAP! strives for according to Catalan. Wanting to "not be perceived as gay theater" but to "use theater to enhance the audience," has led to excellent response from the community. SNAP! productions started with Bent and has included stagings of Safe Sex, The Normal Heart, Jeffrey, The Last Session, Corpus Christi, among others.
With a goal to both educate and inspire, SNAP! looks forward to providing Omaha and Nebraska with quality theater and a "celebration of life."
