Theatre events at Butler CC over the summer have more to do with maintaining and fixing performance space issues. A lot of cleaning and maintenance happens on light fixtures, sound monitors, and backstage/ storage areas.
In the surrounding areas of Newton, Halstead and Butler County, a rise of a tornado warned-storm with severe and high winds passed through on the night of Sunday, May 19. This unleashed chaos and destruction. Many residents woke up to scenes of devastation as the storm wreaked havoc on homes, businesses and infrastructure. Reports indicate that strong winds, heavy rainfall and lightning strikes were the main culprits behind the widespread damage. Trees were uprooted, power lines were knocked down, and some structures suffered significant structural damage. Schools got closed in Newton, many streets were blocked by trees, houses were even flooded and cars totaled.
