It's been curtains for a number of theatre companies in the Valley over the past few years.

Fountain Hills Theater seems to be bucking that treacherous trend. The company is celebrating its 30th anniversary with productions this weekend of 30 Years: The Show featuring 30 of its performers singing bits, pieces and medleys from the more than 100 musicals the troupe has produced.

To learn more about the company’s staying power, we visited with Fountain Hills Theater’s managing artistic director Peter J. Hill.
