Ignite! postpones 2007-08 season

Because their rent at Riverwalk's Cajun Room rose from approx. $1,800 a month to $3,000 a month, Ignite! Community Theater will reduce its season from five plays to two (probably) and won't produce any full productions until Jan. 2008 (certainly).
In the meantime, they'll re-evaluate their finances, which includes searching for a new venue.
This means, of course, that The Streets of New York (scheduled for July), Steel Magnolias (Sept.) and The Dining Room (Dec.) will all be either cancelled or at least postponed.
Their Booklight series of readers theater events will continue, however, beginning in Sept., and they'll have their Oct. haunted house again.
