    Prop List for "The Odd Couple"

    First of all, I am not a propsmaster. I am picking up slack as I have been instructed to do. I do not want a creative position in the show. I just want to get the information that I need to pass on to someone else. Also, I will check the scripts again (although I don't see it having one)...

    College Resident Stage Manager

    I am coming up on short on the communication with the group. At the college, you may see some people once every two weeks so it is important that "technological" communication exists.

    Sound Computer Suggestions

    I agree with the ipod statement made by Morpheus, I have had 3 iPods stolen in our theatres, even though I knew who did and promptly kicked him out, I made a policy that all audio had to be given to me on CD's. A new concept that I have really liked was that we purchased a CD player that you...

    Hey! I'm back!/ The Producers

    Ok, so the pics came up today, I don't know what the issue was...and I figure that the CD will be the only option since the theatre department that I work has filtered internet (because it is a school). I will gladly reimburse you for postage and costs, I should be finding out today if I have...
