Free Preview October 30 and 31

TONIGHT!

After a long and rewarding rehearsal process it's time to invite in the audience to see what we've been up to.

But if you would like a free preview before the preview, here are some pictures from the process:

It's Coming!

Oh I love the theater! The show is coming to that special point where there is no turning around. We can fix and push and prod and redo a little of this and some of that, but really this wagon train is moving and there is no stopping it. I love this part. It's thrilling, exhausting, scary and wonderful. Oh, but I'm so proud of this show.

Once More...With Feeling!

Oh fund raising...will you ever be easy? No. You will not. But, with any luck you can be fun.

Saturday and Sunday we had some friends over to the theatre to watch some Halloween movies. For a small donation they got a seat, a drink and some treats. Some of the treats were home made and others...well who can go wrong with Halloween candy? I ask you! Really. No body, that's who.

Attendance was low both nights, but to be honest we had a good time. Getting ready for the events was stressful, but because it was all wrapped up in load in, it wasn't too bad. Plus after load in and cue-to-cue we got to sit back and watch some fun flicks with our friends who helped us out with our theatre endeavors.

I want to thank everyone who came from the bottom of my heart. We had a good time, and we hope you did to.

A WORLD PREMIERE! It’s a story of two women’s volatile exploration of jealousy, anger, and need, set against the backdrop of a hospital waiting room. The show is called “The Horrible In-Between Place.” Buzzin’ always knew that hospital waiting rooms were dangerous.
