ABOUT
HISTORY
Theatre Scrapbook was originally founded in 1982 by David L. DeAngelis Jr, as a musical theater program at Westerly High School known as Westerly High School Theatre Scrapbook Company. For 32 years, Mr. DeAngelis built a reputation of high quality, fun and educational theatrical productions for the town of Westerly and surrounding communities. Antonella DeAngelis founded the current incarnation of the organization in order to continue the long tradition and to bring the joy of theater to more children.
