Students and Novice Stage Managers / KCACTF Region II

« on: Nov 28, 2008, 10:56 pm »

Hey Everyone,

I was just wondering if anyone was going to KCACTF Region II this January. I have never attended anything like before and am quite terrified. Maybe a little peer support is in need. Wondering if anyone was attended in the past just so I can have an idea of what to expect.

I am attending with my production of Lysistrata but an going as an individual. I understand the main interview portion but am quite terrified of the we will watch you work (**creepy man over right shoulder**) portion.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!

thanks,
Arielle

Students and Novice Stage Managers / Dry Ice on stage

« on: Sep 21, 2008, 10:28 pm »

Hello all,


I am currently in pre-production for Lysistrata. The director and I have a close bond and while discussing possible replacements for the coals on stage and fire on stage called for in Lysistrata she wants to use dry ice. Does anyone know the legality involving dry ice on stage or any other possibilities to aid in the effect? She is opposed to the fan fake flame things because she thinks they are cheesy and also wants to smoke. This is also for The University of Pittsburgh Repertory Theatre so our budget is quite small (although we are fundraising), so any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks!!!
Arielle
