Quack...quack...quack...HONK!

We had nearly 70 auditioners recently for "Honk, Jr." ! We only had 10 roles for children, but they flocked in (get the pun?)! The auditions were difficult with so many in attendance, but we managed and even managed to have FUN, too.

"Honk" is a great piece and should be a lot of fun to produce. We wound up casting 25 and it will be crowed back stage, but we've done it before. With more than able help, we should have a great production.

Onward and upward my fine feathered friends!

Busy...busy...busy

PLAY READING WEEK was the most successful ever! We averaged about 12 each evening and the "goodies" served were as always, scrumptious! The play were well received. Even the serious dramas were appreciated, but we aren't sure we will produce too many, as our survey this year overwhelming showed our patrons was COMEDY! "Life is too dire," many said. We will continue to try and balance our season in an artistic manner.

So...now the task of fixing a slate of plays for the Board to approve and setting the calendar for NEXT SEASON...it comes by so quickly!

Onward and upward!
