How do you select the shows DFT Produces? There is a Selection Committee who assists in selecting the shows for each season for Desert Foothills Theater.  They read the scripts for each of the shows being considered and offer insights, suggestions, concerns and ideas. This is a process for next season starts as soon as the current season opens.
