Grade Update: Play Reviews

While it's early enough to do something about it ...

Most of you have at least one of your three play reviews done (thanks to seeing MND at Anderson Univ). But here's the updated count if you want to know where you stand.

There are a number of plays running at theaters in the upstate this spring. Dig out the Word doc I gave you at the beginning of the year and follow the links to the various playhouses.

You need to make your own arrangements to attend something before the quarter ends. I've got only one more scheduled performance field trip, and that is to take the 8th graders to see I Never Saw Another Butterfly. Some of you bought tickets to see the Living Gallery presentation at BJU on April 15th (I'll send home a note on Friday if you did)... that is also a performance and can count for a review.


OK, the "official" count of how many reviews you've turned in:

(by grade)
11th
Bethany - 1
Rebekah -3 good job! ;)
Sam -1
Alicia -1
Claire -1

9th
Abigail - 2
Sara -1
Ryan -2
Casey -0 (!)
Aaron -1

8th
Bettina -1
Taylor -1
Nate -2


If you run across any particularly interesting plays in town, let me know. I'm always up for a good theater experience ...

well- there's always "BABY" at the electric city playhouse ::

Directed by Mary Nickles
> Is there anything more exciting, frightening and utterly life-changing than impending parenthood? BABY tells the heart-warming story of three couples on a university campus as they deal with the painful, rewarding and agonizingly funny consequences of this universal experience. There are the college students, barely at the beginning of their adult lives; the thirty-somethings, having trouble conceiving but determined to try; and the middle aged parents, looking forward to seeing their last child graduate from college when a night of unexpected passion lands them back where they started. A smart, energetic show with loads of charm, BABY has a tuneful, contemporary score of show stopping songs. Warm, intimate and immensely likable, BABY is a perfect show for anyone who?s ever had a baby.... or for anyone who?s ever been one!


Iiiii think I'll pass.....

Resounding NO
to anything titled "Baby" or anything using words like "heart-warming" ... "painful" ... "rewarding" ... "universal experience"

LOL
