For the King, for the Land, for the Mountains...

I spent more hours in the theater this week than I did for some shows that we've done. We had a group renting the theater: as part of an outreach program through the Pennsylvania Ballet, Central East Middle School staged a production of Sleeping Beauty. The actors were all in the age range of 8-15. It was cute; the show ran about an hour, had one intermission, and had a total run of one performance. The Technical Theatre Association of La Salle University (Can't beat it...) provided the technical prowess to set up their show: backdrops, lighting, sound, etc. It used more technology than any Masque show I've worked on (24 channel, 4 bus Mackie board, with 17 Shure Wireless microphones, for videotaping they brought in a three-camera shoot with switcher)

The show went well...no $%#@-ups.

Worked in administrative services for the first time today...kinda fun. Its nice to have simple, menial office work to do: answer phones, organize files, get mail...ran all over the campus for a few things. Learning some new stuff too about how La Salle operates internally.

Thats about it. Its been boring here; the Day One people are the only people in the townhouses still... its quiet. Angie moved out today, so Hilary and Jerome are now empty, the only people left are in Alberts and Katherines. North Dorms is dead.
