A platform for Thespis and song, 

I would like to thank the stage. 

A barrier from audience and wrong, 

I would like to thank the curtain. 

A guide off the stage and on, 

I would like to thank the lights. 

A place for an audience from hither and yon, 

I would like to thank the house. 

A safe place of creativity and joy, 

I would like to thank the theater. 

Thank you.
