The Seasoned Performers has a new Executive Director, Barbara Sloan. Ellise Mayor continues as Artistic Director while founder and former Executive Director, Martha Haarbauer, moves into the newly created position of Readers Coordinator.
They have added a new performing branch of The Seasoned Performers called The Salon Readers. This group consists of the most experienced senior performers in Birmingham who offer evening and Sunday afternoon salon performances, and concert readings of plays.
