With heavy hearts, Rise Up shares the heartbreaking news of the passing of Claudine O'Grady.

Claudine was a cherished member of our Board of Directors, but to us, she was so much more than that. She was a beloved friend, a devoted supporter, and a bright light in our Rise Up family.

We will deeply miss her warmth, her kindness, and the light she brought to everyone around her. Our hearts are with Claudine's family, friends, and all those who were fortunate enough to know and love her.

In honor of Claudine, the company of Much Ado About Nothing lovingly dedicates this production to her memory. Her friendship, warmth, and bright spirit will forever be a part of our theatre family.
