Play Readers will not meet until the new year--Jan. 4, 2010, to be exact, from 7-9(ish) pm upstairs at the Campus Theatre. Happy Holidays, everyone!
Playwrights of Denton met last Tuesday, with the starts of new plays by Dan and Claud to read. The next playwrights' meeting will be Jan. 19.
Cyrano auditions are this Sunday and Monday, Dec. 20 & 21, at 7 pm. Break a leg, everyone!
Christopher Redden will be leading the Second Saturdays Seminar on Jan. 9 from 1-3 pm; the topic will be "Can You Hear Me Now?: The Basics of Running the Sound Board." Come on out for it, all of you who want to be part of a backstage crew with a sit-down job where you get to watch every performance--we need to train you to do this vital (and relatively easy, when you've been trained by Christopher) job. Just let Julie know at thedctteam@campustheatre.com or call 940 382-7014 x3 to put your name on the list.
Whatever and however you celebrate, have a warm, happy and safe holiday season--we'll see you in 2010!

Play Readers will meet Dec. 8
Play Readers of Denton will meet Tuesday, Dec. 8, from 7-9(ish) pm upstairs at the Campus Theatre to read a play out loud. Last week, David, Claud, and a very froggy Julie (which worked out okay since her role was male) read Yasmina Reza's award-winning Art.

Break a leg to Play Readers Wes and Helen, performing this weekend and next in Mr. Scrooge the Musical up in Gainesville. It sounds like they're having a great time! Info at www.butterfieldstage.org if you'd like to go up and give them a standing ovation.
The Second Saturdays Seminar on Dec. 12 from 1-3 pm will feature Lucinda Breeding, Denton Record-Chronicle Features Editor, on Media Whack-a-Mole. She'll be explaining all the tricks to getting your non-profit event publicized, including submission of digital photos and electronic press kits. Send an email to thedctteam@campustheatre.com if you'd like to participate. It's going to be a fun and very informative workshop, and it's free!
And, last but not least, auditions for Cyrano deBergerac will be Dec. 20 and 21 at 7 pm here at the Campus Theatre. Break a leg, buckle a swash, and tear a passion into tatters, everyone!

Play WRITERS will meet Nov. 17
Welcome to the Play Readers/Writers of Denton blog!
We need READERS for the Playwrights of Denton meeting on Nov. 17.
Playwrights of Denton will meet upstairs at the Campus Theatre from 7-9(ish) pm to support local playwrights and their efforts. And this week, we have a full script by member Dan Creson. He would like to hear it read out loud before he sends it off to a competition. We need 3 women and 5 men, if possible, so that Dan can really hear it with enough different voices.
Last week, we had a small but highly philosophical group at Play Readers, and got started on the topic of the influence of the subconscious/unconscious on creativity. We ended up with an evening that was completely different for us, in which we watched the DVD of Allegro Non Troppo (an Italian spoof on Fantasia) instead of actually reading a play! We'll get back to our regular agenda on Nov. 24.
