Goodspeed Musicals held a ribbon-cutting ceremony on May 16 making its 150-year-old home, The Goodspeed in East Haddam, Conn., more welcoming and accessible for patrons. The project features a renovated front entrance; which includes a new ADA ramp, an expanded porch, automatic-open front doors, energy-efficient lighting, new landscaping, and a statue of Sandy the dog from Annie (which got its start at The Goodspeed) in honor of Tony-winning animal trainer Bill Berloni; as well as a completely redesigned and improved parking area.
