SPOKANE, Wash., Feb. 08, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hotel RL, the latest concept from RLHC (Red Lion Hotels Corporation) (NYSE:RLH) is expanding its neighborhood-friendly performance space, The Living Stage, providing local performers an arena to showcase their creativity to local audiences and Hotel RL rooms around the country. Guests and locals will experience free, carefully curated performances reflective of the neighborhood culture where each Hotel RL calls home. Currently located in Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Spokane, Salt Lake City, and Olympia, the community-centric platform will now open in Brooklyn and Omaha and continue to inspire creative conversation from coast to coast.
“The Living Stage has become a forum for performance that has brought our guests and neighbors together in face-to-face conversation,” said President & Chief Executive Officer Greg Mount. “During this time of great change around the country, The Living Stage is proving to serve a larger community purpose and we look forward to sharing that experience with our new neighbors in Brooklyn and Omaha.”
