Discussion:
Romeo and Juliet
Steve reported that things are going well with two weeks left until
production. He asked for names of
individuals who might complete some sewn items for the show as a cast member who
had taken on some sewing projects was having difficulty getting everything done.
Several names were given.
Discussion:
Ida Higgins Tribute
More discussion was given to honoring Ida during the R&J
performances. It was decided that
ushers would wear costumes Ida has made. Steve
has pulled several costume pieces already that can be used and more will be
hunted down from the costume shop.
Discussion:
Piano Marcy
reported that she had discussed our concerns about the piano with Lu.
Lu had told her that the gouges in the piano had occurred while the piano
was onstage during A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.
Lu told Marcy they would cooperate in any way they could to see that the
piano was cared for in accordance with our wishes.
Discussion:
Old Creamery Performances
Ron had proposed during the last meeting that we might consider helping
to underwrite the cost of performances of the Old Creamery Theatre’s
children’s tour for area schools. This
was discussed again at length but no action was taken at this time.
One option proposed was that performances could be booked into the Palace
with the children then either walking or being bussed to the theatre from the
local elementary schools.
Motion:
(Marcy / Brian)
To adjourn the meeting. Motion
carried.
The Meeting was adjourned at 12:20 PM.
