Later this month, The Link Theatre Company’s highly anticipated annual fundraising event, A Night of Stars, will showcase Broadway stars and local talent side by side onstage in an effort to raise money for the organization’s youth educational programming and professional productions.
Broadway performers Matt Cavenaugh and Jenny Powers, a husband-and-wife team determined to foster the thriving arts community in Jonesboro, launched The Link Theatre Company in 2020. As Northeast Arkansas’ only professional theater company, The Link’s founders, board and guild aim to enrich the local theater scene by creating compelling musicals, plays, concerts and other cultural experiences through innovative design and imaginative storytelling while engaging Broadway, university, local and regional talent.
