It Begins!

The seasons offically began last night at 7:00. We had our first rehearsal: a readthrough of Two Gents. It was very funny, and I can just tell everyones going to have fun with this show. It was great seeing a lot of familar faces again. Back with us this year are:

Ernie Gonzalos (Speed)
Andy Nagraj (Valentine)
Lara Meilcarek (Julia)
Andrew Cruse (Proteus)
Tim Champion (Launce)

Michelle Owen (Stage Mangaer)
Buddy Taylor (Lighting Design)
Damien Baeslack (Outlaw)
Ryan Downey (Antonio, Outlaw)
Hannah Brady (Musician)

New faces include:

Katy DeBoer (Sylvia)
Richard Worswick (Thurio)
Greg Bealer(Outlaw)



The beginings of the set have been constructed, thanks to Buddy Taylor and Daniel Taylor's hard work out in the heat. The stage is just where it was last year. This is the first year we've kept the stage in the same place. I've always kind of liked how we switch up the location every year. But the decision to stay put this time made a lot of sense. It is very convient in terms of backstage access; it allows for more audience seating; its nice and big; and most importantly, the stage is in shade during the afternoons when we rehearse. I can't tell you how painful it is to stand in the direct sun for hours! So we've got a win-win situation now.



Keep checking back for more updates as we get further and further along in the rehearsal process!
