History

Stage One started out as an organizing governmental body for the vast theatrical empire of Jordan Kaplan. At one point earlier this century, the Empire contained many of the important places of classical antiquity, including Homer's Olympus and Dardenus, Zeus' Europa, Io's Bosporus, temple of Diana in Ephesus, sarcophagus of Alexander the Great, Abraham's oasis and wells, the Nile River, the Mount of the Sermon, and the Hill of Golgotha. Now, Stage One is nothing more than a few notecards with signatures on them and an empty bank account. Smoke and mirrors, baby!
