    Kind of new I suppose

    Yeah, Wright State is named after the wright brothers, however I don't really understand it, since sure they were born here, but it's not like anything historical happened in Dayton...

    Kind of new I suppose

    Hi! My name is Amanda, and while I am not new (I have technically had this account for 2 years) I haven't been on here in over a year or so. Unfortunately I forgot my user name AND password (I would lose my head if it wasn't attached). I finally got back in, and thought I would take advantage...

    Corn chips in the booth.

    Getting locked in there is always an interesting time too... Who ever decided to put the door so its locked from the inside needs to be shot in the big toe. :-) haha

    Unruly casts?

    I think there is only so much an advisor/director/parent (which ever adult is incharge) can do. All these adults are busy worrying about other things it is hard for them to make sure "Billy" isn't hanging from the curtains. But at the same time I think when cast and crew members yell at other...

    schools

    I have been searching for colleges as well and I decided on Wright State (It has an amazing program and very helpful teachers there) I planned on double majoring, however the way they set up their theater tech program will not allow for much time for anything else. When I talked to them I...

    Which is better?

    I like the scripts done so its just one sided (making it 2 sided is too complicated for me! haha) plus then my friends and I have plenty of room for hang man and drawing when we are bored (that doesnt happen often) and when I lose a page I only lose one page instead of 2! (yes I keep them in a...

    Tradition!

    We dont really have a tradition... ok well we do say "whoa Bundy" before shows (I dont know why!) so yeah there is that... but other than that I guess theres never anytime for a tradition to start... we are the masters of procrastination! :)

    Mic'ing a piano

    We have recently been controlling the piano's volume through the sound board for our shows... HOWEVER our pianist (did I spell that right?) is deaf and never thinks she is loud enough... and she doesn't have any faith in my abilities... so I am constantly being told what to do by her and all the...

    Techie sayings

    "If they don't want to shut up so I can do a mic check, the show can just suck tonight." That sounds very familliar... Oh wait, I think I say that every show!

    colleges

    I just got home from Band camp, and my director husband who used to work at a theater lighting company, and is now a radio show host told me about Wright State and said it was a great college (that's where he went) and i was wondering if anyone here has heard anything about Wright State?

    New equipment... yay... but the nerves about learning it...

    This is Amanda... the tech director... and Yay! I can't wait till school starts (wow that's the only time I have EVER said that) Any way, I am kind of nervous that I am not going to know how to run the lights because I was gone on vacation when the light guy came and showed everyone (and when I...

    colleges

    Incase you guys were wondering the concert ROCKED! The lights and sound were really amazing, ok well in the sound department there were a few problems, but I have no room to say anything, all I know is it was so loud that things are still alittle fuzzy when people talk (maybe I should get that...

    colleges

    Who knew Napoleone dynamite actually had a lesson in it? any way, thats all easier said than done for me (the whole not having everything figured out deal) If you ask tenor_singer, Daria, or Nate, or anyone else on here that I know they will tell you I am a perfectionist, and I am organized and...

    colleges

    Thanks for the advice jyenish, My college search is slowing down due to the fact that the information I have requested from the colleges has yet to come in... Also I have band camp (yeah, I am a total dork) Any way, I have concidered a small liberal arts school (quite a few actually) but then...
