One Acts Check-outs

Directors

  • Hadysha - Blind Date

    • Great experience!

    • There were a few “freak out” moments but it all turned out great!

    • Glad to have a holistic view of theater and how hard everyone works!

  • Jack - Boise, Idaho

    • Super positive experience!

    • Did summer show with Natalie, but that was training wheels. This was go time.

    • Cast was great! People enjoyed the show!

    • Looking forward to doing more!

  • Priya - Lucky Misfortunes

    • One Acts went great! Although I couldn’t be there for tech rehearsal/move in, I heard that everything went smoothly! I was able to see Friday’s performance over zoom, and stood in the back for my show on Saturday! Overall, this process has been amazing and I had such an amazing time directing for the first time!

  • Ishika - Lady Killers

    •  

  • Julia - The Letter

    • I was glad to have a short scene in the long run, the whole process felt very stress light

    • Wish the final days had gone differently, but that’s nothing to do with the performance

    • Was fortunate enough to watch it via zoom both nights, everything was amazing!

    • Super thankful for Claire and Nhi (and Tina just not for me lol) for all the hard work they put in

    • Putting on original work can be a scary thing, fear of judgement, but it’s really worth the payoff :)

  • Carrie - La Mouche

    •  Great experience!

    • Lovely cast, audience loved it

    • Bows were sorta messy but a very small thing

    • Great send off for her last one act

  • Natalie - skits and monologues

    •  

Creative Team

  • Nhi - stage manager

    •  Everything went great and it was a really good and fun experience with Troupe :) It made me miss theater and stage managing, I forgot how happy stage manager made me so thank you to One Acts for that! Would recommend that for future One Acts everything should be in one spreadsheet (contact information, script, when2meet, conflicts, rehearsal, rehearsal room, etc) because Tina and I did that and it was really convenient. And finally, big shout out to Claire, Liv, Emma, Siena and Katie, I love seeing you guys around and you guys made this experience really fun for me :). 

  • Tina - stage manager

    •  

  • Claire - tech director

    •  First TD experience! Was very nervous but it went so well!

    • Thankful for a very flexible team

    • Had a great time with this process, so excited to do more!

  • Emma - producing

    • Wish the drive went up sooner

    • Too many one acts lol

    • But it all went really well!

    • Learned a lot of valuable lessons if she ever gets to run it again

    • Met a lot of brand new actors and techies!

      • Special project goals are always opportunities and recruitment

Tech Workshop Series

  •  Reached out to other TAs, great idea!

  • Wanted advice on how big this should be

    • Similar to Elements of Theatre workshops?

    • Bring back workshops from last year? Directing! Creative team stuff too!

      • Not exactly what Katie had in mind: wants to stay specifically in tech departments

      • Not a stage troupe event, but a theatre-wide tech event

      • Involving people who are higher up

        • Alumni, SOT people, Eric, Lex ?

  • Scheduling

    • 1 workshop a day

    • Like a weeklong / month long event?
