Under Michael Ritchie’s leadership as artistic director, we have seen the most robust period of world premieres on our stages, greatly expanded community partnerships and more wide-reaching education and outreach programs than ever before. Now, with Meghan Pressman joining the team as our new managing director and CEO, I believe the best is yet to come. As stewards of this organization, the board has never been more important than it is now, as we support Meghan and Michael in taking Center Theatre Group to new heights.”
