How long have you been in theatre?
What we're you thinking with that screen name?

Welcome aboard! Looks like a pretty nice space for a high school, from what I can see on the school's website.

I'm packing up to head back to school right now, so I'll let someone else do the lengthy welcome schpeil.

From a fellow Utahn, hello and welcome to CB! We have lots of info to share, and we hope that you do too! Make friends with the search feature as it is quite useful (but we will always answer a question even if it has been posted a thousand times, we just give you crap about it!). Ask anyything, and offer up any answers you have, and you may find that you will never leave this site!

and btw... if you happen to be interested, i will probably need more crew people for oue last show of the season, and for next season! So send a PM or email!

I think I am going to welcome you from down under but I'm not happy with the ID.
(I am very superstitious)

Welcome, Macbeth. Your screen name doesn't bother me a bit. I can't whistle, but if I could, I'd do it onstage. Superstitions are fine, but I don't think anyone can give the exact origin behind saying "the Scottish play" in the theatre.

The Davis Country School District site seems to be having issues at the moment, so tell us some more about your facilities and your show schedule. Will you be among the first seniors graduating from the school?

I'll add my greetings as well. Hope your new theater is resplendant with all the latest (or at least newer) toys. There's lot of neat things about starting in a new theater, but be patient as all the bugs work themselves out of the system.

I think your name is apropo here, but I'm Scottish, so feel akin to that one particular play. Not particularly superstitious about the usual things, but we did have a run of bad luck after singing several "Fiddler" tunes during a run of "Nunsensations" - anything is possible in the theater...

Charlie

P.S. pay attention to that search feature advice. I've already been razed twice because of it...

I choose my screen name cause im the only one that freaks out when one of our crew members say it so it just has became my nickname. I have been doing stage crew since I was in 9th grade and now im in 11th. Plus im part of the first graduating class from my school.
Tonight is our closing night for B.B.B.
And it has been hard setting up a new theatre, but our crews have managed and the other high schools around us are very impressed.
I have some pictures that I took of our cast and the auditorium. so once I can get them uploaded ill show everyone.

Our Makeup girl for this current production's last name is "Macbeth". So everyone calls her "Scottish play".
