The city of Auburn has had the great privilege of having Community Little Theatre as a resident. We read with dismay that Auburn may force CLT to another location.

We lived in Auburn for 30 years, raised our children there, and loved being part of the community. We moved away 15 years ago, but are drawn back from time to time to attend a CLT performance and gather with old friends.

CLT is a great benefit to us, but it is also a benefit to Auburn.

We always make our visits weekend getaways, staying locally and eating at local restaurants. We let other past residents know and are occasionally successful in getting them to join us in Auburn.

We can’t be the only people in New England who come into town because of CLT.
