Now that the curtain has closed on STAGE DOOR, I’d like to take a moment to thank you all for volunteering/feeding/selling/decorating/painting … and everything else you did! – all in support of Theatre Centreville. Just one look at the faces of those kids at their final bows is all it took to show us how much it meant to them. It was such a joy to watch them perform, bringing to life a show that may portend a future life in the theatre for many of our fine actors. Mr. Rogers’ talent and hard work surely paid off in the successful staging of this, our second Drama Boosters production, and I am very grateful for his direction.

At the risk of leaving anyone out, I’d like to highlight the efforts of a number of people, without whom this entire project would have been very difficult (if not impossible!). Extra special thanks and appreciation go to:

• The cast and crew of Stage Door for entertaining us while showcasing their wonderful talents.
• Mark Rogers, for beautifully directing such a large cast and delivering a terrific show. Mark’s hours and hours of hard work and dedication truly showed on the stage. We are lucky to have him guiding our students.
• Diane Belden and Sandy Clingman, for getting us started.
• Our lobby decorators/table workers/ticket sellers – these ladies did it all! Thank yous don’t cover it, but thanks anyway to Sandy Clingman, Denise Tillema, Karen Sancho-Bonet, Toni Strauch, Fran Dwornik, Debbie Jackson, June Gonzalez, Mary Ann Lyons, Claire Scerra, Bernadette Stratton, Stephanie Nasta, Ana Larson, Maria Monzon, Terri Assell, Becky Millis, Marla Seeman, Denise Reynolds, Deb Collins, and all the moms, dads, brothers, and sisters who helped in immeasurable ways.
• June Gonzalez and Melissa Michael, for copying and delivering all those programs.
• Linda Blake, Rebecca Blake, Emily McLenigan, and Montana Smith, for folding and stapling many, many programs.
• The Tech Day volunteers from the Clingman family, the Nasta family,  the Larson family, and the CVHS Technical Theatre students.
• All the families who provided food and drinks for Tech Day and our Rehearsal Dinner. Your donations were much appreciated by our tired and hungry laborers and actors.
• Our Tech Class student ushers and lobby assistants, for lots and lots of help getting ready for the shows each night.
• Our Drama Mama alum and Theatre C’ville alum – Linda Peterson, Patti Kelly, Chris Starr, Jess Starr, Christine Tillema, Victor Trussell, and Will Stratton – for having our backs and for helping us out when we really needed it.
• The Collins Family, for hosting a wonderful cast party for our wonderful cast and crew.
• The Drama Boosters Exec Board, for their hard work and tireless devotion to Theatre C’ville.
• All the Drama Boosters supporters listed in the Stage Door program, for their generosity and considerable support.
• Our program advertisers, whose financial support helps us to support Theatre C’ville from a material perspective.
• Our generous and supportive audience, who enjoyed and applauded the talents and efforts of our Theatre C’ville students.

To anyone I may have inadvertently missed, I apologize. Please know that even if my memory is flawed, your time and talent are so very appreciated.

And so we move on! We’re all set to begin work on our next main stage show, Alice in Wonderland. I know Mr. Hudson has lots of great ideas, and I’m sure we can provide lots of help to make it all work. I really hope to see all of you (and many others) as we continue to support our terrific Theatre kids. It’s a lot of fun and so, so rewarding. Please join us!

 My heartfelt thanks to you all,

Cathy
