Episode 232 – Geva Theatre’s Comeback & the Future of Local Art

When Mark Cuddy took the helm at Geva Theatre in 1995, the organization was facing a $1.3 million deficit and a shrinking subscriber base. What followed was nearly three decades of steady leadership, artistic risk, and institutional stability that helped preserve one of Rochester’s cultural jewels.

In this episode, Mark opens up about audience habits, post-pandemic recovery, artistic courage, and why he chose to launch his new venture, The Classics Theatre Company.
