Dave and Chris Van Dusen Tell Our Story
Dave and Chris Van Dusen have taken their support for RRCAA to heart. “We just love Rabbit Run!” Chris exclaims. Dave adds, “It’s the kind of place you just love to come and visit. It has beautiful grounds and is just a tranquil setting. There’s so much beauty in this place, but there’s a lot of work to be done. It’s a community asset in a very big way. Anything we can do that perpetuates it and makes it a better place, we’re happy to do. I would hope that anyone associated in any way would feel the same”
“We’re happy that we can be supportive in both a financial way and a worker bee way” Dave explains. “We’re very pleased to be part of Rabbit Run.”

The Green Family Tells Our Story
It would be difficult to identify an aspect of RRCAA that doesn’t include a member of the Green family. “Being involved in the arts is a lifelong process” says Chris Green. His wife, Tina, explains “The kids, Ben, Hannah and Abby, have taken voice lessons, piano lessons, dance classes, art classes and drama classes through the years. And it has helped them, in a lot of ways, develop who they are.”
“The arts are imperative to growing as people. They are forever. You always need to be able to communicate. You can always create. You can sing forever. The arts do these things and Rabbit Run uses all of these aspects to encourage, challenge and develop people.”

Maria Lister Tells Our Story
Sometimes great joy is found in the midst of great loss. Adjusting to the cancer diagnosis that ultimately took his life, Kevin Lister told his wife, Maria, “I think God is telling me you need to get back into theater.” After ten years away from the stage, Maria began to act and direct for Rabbit Run Theater. “We were created to be creative and I believe the performing arts need to be cultivated and grown.”
Maria carries this mentality into all of her artistic pursuits, particularly those involving young people. “I encourage kids to support each other as they work toward the same goal” she explains. “I love being a part of a greater vision.”
