CertaPro Painters® of Greensboro, NC Supports Local Theater Groups

Posted on August 4, 2020

Many of our local theater groups have been out of work since the start of COVID-19. That’s why Matthew Cravey started “Battle of the Community Theatre Stars”—a regional online theater trivia game show featuring contestants from local theater groups.

Our team at CertaPro Painters® of Greensboro, NC, partnered with another local CertaPro franchise, CertaPro Painters® of Winston-Salem, to sponsor the semifinal and championship rounds of the contest. Sarah Jenkins of Spirit Gum Theatre Company took home the grand prize, which included $300 thanks to our sponsorship.

“Battle of the Community Theatre Stars” took place on Facebook Live and was a way for the theater groups and their patrons to stay connected and have fun while in quarantine.
