Cambridge University American Shakespeare Tour (C.A.S.T.) will be here on Saturday, Sept. 8th to begin a three-day residency. In that time they'll be performing "Winter's Tale". 7:00 p.m. Sunday and 8:00 p.m. Monday.

There are some opportunities for folk:
I need a couple of lighting techicians that can help on Sunday with the addition of some specials to the standard plot in Weis.

We also need to house these folks - 16 British Theatre Students (8m / 8f). Any takers? They're used to floors.

And, naturally, we need to go see the show. Again, 7:00 Sunday and 8:00 Monday.

email me at hallock@centre.edu if you wish to help.

See you at the CentrePlayers meeting on Friday!

Sunday morning.

Tomorrow we begin a new year. That makes this a "New Year's Eve" of sorts.

So - RESOLUTIONS!

What do you want to do differently this year than you did last year?

(And no points for "better time management". I don't know anyone that doesn't need to do that better.)

See you tomorrow.
