Sometimes, kids won't tell you anything, but I'll tell you EVERYTHING and even put it on Facebook!
UPCOMING EVENTS and CTInfo

Daniel Martin, costume and make-up consultant, has assigned Arsenic and Old Lace as the designer's first class project. Then he will begin discussing with Trumbauer events with each designer.
Mike Putman will begin next week training sound designers and scene designers for their Trumbauer events, and Kirstie Crumly arrives on Tuesday to train lighting designers.

The Day the Earth Shook
By now, everyone knows that much of the Eastern coast of the U.S. suffered a 5.8 magnitude earthquake yesterday. Certainly not to make light of the damage suffered, especially to national monuments including the Washington Monument and the National Cathedral, and the nuclear reactor that was "tripped", i.e. shut down....however.....
We felt the tremors all the way to CORNER THEATRE; well, maybe not, but it seemed like it. Yesterday, we had a record number of new auditionees in the department trying to make their way into the first two shows of the season, 13 Alabama Ghosts and Jeffrey and Bethlehem or Bust!. And you've never seen so much shaking and nerves in our little hamlet of Corner. But just as I told them, you'll survive and be better for it.
Guess what? Auditions went on with no injuries from falling catheral spires, no casualties of any kind, just maybe a little quaking in their boots/shoes/trip pants. Now that they have survived the audition process, we're looking forward to casting both these shows, and we're sure you'll love seeing them! So go now and order your season tickets at http://www.cornertheatre.org/ .
