NBC Nightly News shares The Prospector story with the world

With popcorn and soda in hand, Prospects, friends and fans gathered at The Prospector Theater in Ridgefield to watch The Prospector Theater's story unfold for the world to see.  

Last week, NBC Nightly News correspondent Harry Smith spent several hours touring the theater and interviewing Prospects, Prospector founder, Valerie Jensen, and even the families of the Prospects. And, in just over 2 minutes, NBC Nightly News showcased the powerful mission of the theater in a segment they call Making A Difference. "Valerie Jensen is making a difference...Valerie is a force to be reckoned with," Smith said.

The Prospects were candid and joyful as they documented their theater responsibilities for correspondent, Harry Smith. "I work with my prospects to find out what their sparkle is," said Jensen.

As the segment came to an end, Smith said, "Just think if this could work in your town."
