Matt Palm of the Orlando Sentinel calls Bright Star “a beacon of hope in our cynical world.”

Using her education, expertise and relationships, alumna Calla MacNamara has brought the arts to her local community.

Written by Steve Martin and Edie Brickel, Bright Star reveals the redemptive power of love through bittersweet bluegrass tunes. Following one woman’s journey through hope and heartache, audiences will find an antidote to cynicism in this unapologetically sentimental serenade.
