One Acts Check-Ins
- Director: Brittany
- Very happy overall
- One Acts is best when done in the theater
- Director: Danielle
- Highly recommends musicals for One Acts
- MDs should have a separate piano player
- The Student Theater is thus far the best place for One Acts
- Actors are people before they’re actors—make sure they are allowed to eat before warm-ups
- Actors should be respected at warm-ups and shouldn’t be forced to do anything they don’t want to do
- Director: Karen
- It was very fun. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.
- TD: Devika
- Went really well
- Left the Space open after strike for American Idiot
- Left lights, two ladders, gel frames, and wrenches for the people who are in the Student Theater next
- Suggests getting a new makeup kit (or 2) and new foundation
- A lot of lights aren’t working and many gel frames are bent/not usable
- Suggests the next show in the Student Theater should get a bigger lighting budget to fix what’s broken
- Has space/theater keys and will arrange something with whomever needs to pick them up
- SM: Alba and Caitlin
- Felt disrespected by some directors
- Frustrating to have people argue against inconvenient call times
- People should commit to tech week as if it were a mainstage
- Some second-semester seniors checked out and didn’t set a good example
- Because more people take on unfamiliar tech roles with One Acts, they should communicate more and ask for help when confused
- Producing: Brittany
- Had a hard time producing and directing at the same time. Disappointed not to have had more people sign up/participate
