Spin the Blackbox 180 degrees and put the stage on the floor and the audience on risers
Build said risers ;)
Turn the art room into a functional green room
Hang curtains and build masking flats to complete the stage
Build a masking wall and create a walk-behind passage for exiting the stage and passing behind it
Put blackout film on the giant windows
Set up some functional lighting for Phase 1 of the Lighting Project
Purge and organize the paint room
Learn tech skills and help out with main stage shows by running the light and sound boards and helping build sets
....and do whatever else needs to be done... what are YOUR ideas?
So, we need some stuff to make the Blackbox theater truly amazing. Like a paint job. And a followspot. Francine will take care of the paint job, but YOU need to help us get a followspot.
How?
By putting on some pack-the-house fundrai$ing shows.
First up in the Blackbox: It's a two-for-one! Two witty and cerebral comedies for just one $10 ticket!
