Deborah L. Clapp has been named the Interim Director for the League of Chicago Theatres, the advocacy organization of almost 200 Chicago-area theatre companies.
"Chicago's theatre community is the most vibrant and innovative in the world and I am honored the League has asked me to help represent the community," stated Clapp in article by Playbill.
Clapp is faced with the challenge of helping the Chicago theatre community thrive in today's economy where theatre attendance is decreasing as gas prices and taxes are increasing. Despite the critical acclaim that Chicago theatre has gotten this year, it is still affected by the slowing economy and the rising competition in entertainment choices.
