Long Island with its proximity to New York has always been fertile ground for people who are interested in musical theatre as well as professions in music in general...I think that the Long Island Musical Theatre Festival is perpetuating a tradition. But of course with its pre-professional training program now, it’s providing a resource that didn’t exist prior to this.
