Phantom Chorus Theatre

Phantom Chorus Theatre is embarking on its 4th season of original work! PCT's mission is to create all new works or original adaptations, using the mediums of puppetry, movement, and music.  Through imagination, we strive to make the impossible real! Watch some highlights from our first 3 seasons in the video above ✨🎭
