In 1989 Clarkdale was placed on the Register of Historic Places, comprised of 386 homes and buildings. It is Arizona's largest historic district!

MUHS A.T.O.R.T. (A Troupe Of Ridiculous Thespians) is proud to present the Arizona premier of Impression: Monet - a musical staged reading about the life of impressionist painter Claude Monet. Set in the late 1800's and early 1900's, this story follows Monet and his love of his first wife Camille and second wife, Alice. Written by Clarkdale residents Curt Ireland with lyrics and music by Cynthia Strom, this musical has a lush score and a book full of wit, sarcasm, mystery and sorrow. With a minimalist set, this stage reading gives the audience a chance to use the greatest asset in theatre - their imagination. While following the story, projected images behind the action will not only show the setting, but the paintings that Monet painted during the various times and locations during his carrier. Showing the following times in the MUHS Auditorium:
December 10th at 7:00pm
