Founding Members of the Encore! Society

Special remembrance to Shirlee Emmons and Alice Mae Riley. Seed money provided by a major gift from the estate of Ms. Riley allowed NATS to establish the National Musical Theatre Competition. A generous bequest from Ms. Emmons’ estate underwrites the cost of speakers at NATS conferences and workshops. Together these gifts were foundational to the formation of the NATS Endowment.
