*Spooky Theater Spotlight Video Now On YouTube*
The GEM Theater in Garden Grove has been staging live shows for 107 years. We spent a rehearsal day backstage with One More Productions as they prepared Bat Boy: The Musical, to find out how a historic neon-marquee theater keeps its doors open.
We tour the workshop, the costume room, and the Art Deco lounges, then hear from the cast and crew about a quick turnaround after Sweeney Todd, a show most people have never seen, and the balance between art and commerce.
