Rob Cappuzzo, Treasurer 

Rob's last time on stage was in the 4th Grade as the Wizard in The Wizard of Oz... and after that, he officially retired from theater. That was until he married Lisamarie who is a 30+ year veteran teacher and drama director. Since marrying Lismarie, Rob has "volunteered" to assist Lisamarie in set-building and design, flying scenery and occasionally running Spotlight #2. Rob is an attorney and helped incorporate Stagecoach Productions and secure their charitable status.
