My guest is Donna Kelly Romero. Donna grew up in Upper Darby and enjoyed watching children’s theatre at Summer Stage as a child. In 1987, she started as an Apprentice and worked her way up to staff in the late 90s where she developed a deep appreciation for her mentors which led to her pursuit to study theatre along with education. Donna returned as a staffer from 2008-2013. At Harry’s request, she returned to help out in the Apprentice program for the summer of 2021. I hope you enjoy our conversation, so, come along and have some fun. . .
We all have stories to tell and they can be heard here.
