Scripts and rehearsal schedules will be available after "Arsenic & Old Lace." Congratulations to those who made it into CHESS.

Arsenic & Old Lace
Thank you to all who auditioned! If you didn't get a part, don't be too discouraged. Auditions for the musical are just a few weeks away, and the spring play looks like it will have a cast of twice the size of this one. ALSO, we would love to have you crew for the show! We are especially looking for make-up artists and set builders. Sign up outside the West Aud. I just received confirmation of our rights to produce the show, so now I can announce THE CAST LIST.

You may notice a slight change in the East Auditorium when we head back to school. The masonite covering is gone from the stage and the hardwood deck has been sanded clean of varnish and painted black. It looks very similar to the stage surfaces at Century II.
