Events at NAPA:
Our events where we come up with different theatre and music performances bring people together, strengthen communities, and bridge cultural and social lines. The NAPA Repertory Theatre and the NAPA Music Ensemble were founded with two aims: to provide professional platforms for NAPA graduates and to promote appreciation of theatre and music.
