Season Changes...

So, strike today went really well. A lot got done. Hopefully, only one more "tech day" will be needed, and it will be only for crew people and anyone they feel should come to help. We don't know what day that will be yet, so keep checking back for details.

For those of you who were not at strike today (yes, we know who you are, yes, this was mandatory) the season is as follows:
Romeo and Juliet
The Beggar's Opera
Annie Get Your Gun
The Visit OR Gold in the Hills

The Beggar's Opera is the basis for the more modern "Three Penny Opera" and is a satire on operas. The show is essentially, what a "Poor Person's" Opera would be about. Yea, I'm really not doing it justice... It's really funny... Google it to find out more ;-).

So for those of you who still haven't caught on, yes, we are doing two musicals next year.

Keep checking this Blog. It seems to be workign pretty well. And, if you know of any drama people who don't know about this yet, please let them know.

Oh yea, and reminder: Thespian Point Meeting WEDNESDAY (Today) at 3:30.

Sunday, June 10, 2007

Reminder...

MDNATORY STRIKE IS THIS TUESDAY!!!!
3:30 PM. MEET IN THE LITTLE THEATER.
We will me making the big announcement at like, as close to 3:30 sharp as possible so we don't take too much time up from strike. BE ON TIME!!! People will be marked late.

Also, CC and ACC positions for next year will be discussed on Wednesday. Performances at strike will come into account.

We are hoping to post the CC/ACC list by the end of the week, if not, definately by the end of next week.

Yay first post!!!!

Yay the first post!!! To start off, MAJJJJJJJJOR props to Sarah Berks for this amazing idea. We'll try it out and see how it works... hopefully it will be a useful resource.
So, to start off, we recommend you check this every day (after you check Facebook, MySpace, LJ, etc...). Our goal is to make this a second call board of sorts. Like, if on tech nights, you want to know wheteher or not to bring paint clothes, this would be the place to check. If crew chiefs, acc's, or any other people have anything important to announce, they can IM/e-mail it to Jeff and it can be posted ASAP. More clarifications/chnages will me made/added as we see fit.

Looking foward to a great season,
Jeff, Marc, Adam, Pat, Caroline and Alex
