In August, Northern Virginia’s NextStop Theatre postponed its previously announced large-cast fall programming “due to the recent resurgence of Covid-19 cases in our community” and promised a revised schedule soon. That new schedule has arrived as the company announces its reconceived fall slate of “four safe and fun shows featuring artists you know and love as well as new talent to the NextStop stage.”
