ICT Mainstage produces fairly consistently strong plays and musicals as the season unfolds. It does take some risks as well and chooses some rare or off-Broadway pieces that help maintan a fresh pace across the season. They spend a good bit of funds on sets, costumes, and props — they actually have some of the best props in the city. Since ICT operates as the full community theatre, which means they do not pay their actors. That frees up some money for more visual infrastructure. Their season subscription is a good savings and will give you a good chance to get a flavor of the sort of talent that gets drawn to the company. If you like, keep attending. You’ll enjoy. They often produce their shows at the Dupree theatre at the Irving Arts Center, which they use well.
