7pm: Spring Interest Forum. Come share your ideas for next semester (directors, designers, producers, anyone!). If you have a full show and vision that you’d like to “pitch”, that’s great! If you don’t have a show, but really want to build a giant house on a certain stage, that’s great! If you don’t have any concrete plans, but really want to do a show dealing with a certain issue, that’s equally great! If you’re not attached to anything, this is the time to come hear who might need your skills! Contact Emily Bergquist ([email protected]) with any questions or to serve as proxy if you cannot attend but would like to get your ideas out there.
