Going to put seeing this sight on our bucket list! CHARTS Academy starts on the 11th--maybe the theater students can build a replica set, and we can all pretend we are there...it’s a thought.

It’s our 2012 Film Production crew!

Sometimes sets can get a bit… wacky.  I once saw a version of Richard III that looked like it was set in some sort of post-apocalyptic England.  Trash and metal everywhere.  When characters were killed, they were thrown into a large dumpster with graffiti on it.  Someone had to sit in the dumpster to catch people.  Since it was onstage almost all the time, they couldn’t leave.  They created a twitter account and live tweeted from the dumpster.  And it was the best thing ever.

What to do when your t-shirt order is late! 😂😂😂😂 (Our building super decided to get creative since our t-shirts haven't arrived yet.)

We've been doing this for 10 years! Happy 10th Anniversary to us! These are the last NINE years of t-shirts and lit journals from our program!
