Center Stage Youth Theatre

Posts Tagged ‘Formal Interview’

I saw the dress rehearsal of the Town Theatre’s Annie Get Your Gun last night with my Son Will. It was a fundraiser for Glenforest School, and one of the highlights -  aside from the show – was visiting with and meeting some new folks from the school.

I will be meeting this week with Chris Winkler, the devoted headmaster of Glenforest, as well as Mr. Barton Calvert, the Dean of Students.  We will be joined in the meeting by a member of the school’s board, a faculty member and a parent. I suppose I should be nervous about  this meeting, as it is a formal interview for me, but I feel only cheerful anticipation when I think about it.   I am really looking forward to talking more with these kind folks about creating a drama program at the  school.

The show was great!  It was the first time I had seen anything at the Town Theatre and it certainly lived up to it’s reputation.  Many of the voices were of professional quality and the acting was stellar – really nice characterizations and there were some lovely connections between some of the actors.  And it was obvious that they were having an awful lot of fun, and that is always great to see.

There were three kids in the show and they did an absolutely wonderful job – very natural, and no pushing for the laughs.  Bravo, young people!
