7Spotlight on Sandy Mascia, SSC’s Co-Founder and Executive Director. Sandy was part of the initial inception of Spotlight Stage Company after having worked with  Christopher on past productions. Her ability to marry her love of theatre and her business know-how is a perfect fit for SSC.  Her service to many non-profit and volunteer organizations including: Girl Scouts, Jamie Hulley Arts Foundation, St. Rita School, North Haven High School PTA, Spotlight Stage Company and many more, have only made her an invaluable member of our company. Her experience in event planning, her leadership formerly as Board President for a non-profit theater and strong work ethic keep our company progressing. Sandy is currently in her 7th year serving as a musical theater Producer for a local non-profit parochial school. Though she may never take the stage she is a dedicated and fearless leader in our company and in our theatrical community. She has been company manager for every single SSC production which currently stands at 12 and counting! Sandy’s passion for theatre only grows stronger when watching her daughter perform.
