Letter from the President: March 2018

March 25, 2018

Hey everyone,

I hope this finds you all well and enjoying the spring that is popping up all around us. Of course if you are like me, you are still trying to overcome that hour we lost in March. I never seem to catch up to it, and somehow the hour we gain in the fall just doesn’t even it out!

Many thanks to JK Gregg and her incredibly talented cast and crew of our last production, Death of a Salesman. I still have people coming up to me just agog over the brilliant performances and the power of Arthur Miller’s words even today, or perhaps especially today.

At the other end of the spectrum we have the farce Boeing Boeing to look forward to beginning April 6. Farce is my favorite form of comedy, as it involves split-second timing that takes the audience on a wild ride. You can bet that with the cast and crew Johnny Peppers has assembled, it will be perfect fun!

As ever, Pull-Tight and I especially thank you for your continued support. We are particularly blessed to live in the community that we do, to have the patrons that we do, and to have the dedicated, hard-working artist members that we do. You are all so very much appreciated!

See you at the theatre!

Teen YAG is Back!

February 16, 2018

Advisors Leslie Berra and Jeremy Hargis are excited to announce the return of the monthly Teen Youth Actors Guild meetings throughout the school year. Teen YAG will typically meet on the first Saturday of each month from 10:30 a.m. to noon at Pull-Tight, and is open to youth ages 13-18. Each meeting will focus on an area of stagecraft/theater and will be taught by an expert in that field.

Our first meeting is scheduled for Saturday March 3, just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. We will be holding an Irish Dialect Workshop taught by Brett Myers. Come prepared to have fun while learning how to speak with an Irish brogue.

Subsequent meetings scheduled are:

Saturday, April 7, 10:30am-noon
Aging Makeup Workshop taught by Sydney Hooper

Saturday, May 5, 10:30am-noon
Monologue Selection taught by Natalie Long

Saturday, June 2, 10:30am-Noon

Letter from the President: January 2018

January 29, 2018

Hey everyone,

Hopefully this letter finds you all well and off to a great start to the New Year! I, myself, feel like I still have so much left to do in the old year that it takes me a while to let go and find my stride!

Many thanks to Daryle Tallent and her cast and crew for the delightful production of Christmas Belles. It was a wonderful way to kick off the Christmas season. The laughs were many, but the heart of the show wasn’t lost on anyone either.

The powerful and compelling Death of a Salesman opens soon and it really is a classic not to be missed. JK Gregg and her cast and crew are hard at work, and having  stopped into a rehearsal, I can tell you it is spellbinding.

Whether it’s snowing or 60 degrees out, I can’t think of a more perfect way to spend an evening than at the theatre. See you there!

Lynda

Letter from the President: November 2017

November 18, 2017

Hey everyone,

I hope this newsletter finds you well and happy and looking forward to a joyous holiday season with your friends and loved ones.

Many thanks to Iain Macpherson and the talented cast and crew of Rumors for a most entertaining night at the theatre. Neil Simon writes superbly for the stage, but he depends on people like this fabulous cast and crew to bring it to life.

Speaking of life … there’s a bit of strife in Fayro, Texas as the sisters Futrelle and company prepare to put on a Christmas show at the Tabernacle of the Lamb. Daryle Tallent and her cast and crew are getting ready to take you there via the inimitable words of Jones, Hope, Wooten. We hope you’ll join us.

At this time of year we wish you all peace, love and hope, and we thank you for your continued support of our beloved little theatre. We are very blessed indeed.

Letter from the President: October 2017

Hey everyone,

I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the approaching fall weather. Since I’m a Libra, I always feel at home as the air chills and the leaves begin to fall; makes me want to get my cauldron out and start brewing!

The witches of MacBeth

The Fantasticks had a super run and brought its beautiful, timeless story to many who were seeing it yet again, as well as to many new audiences. Once again, hats off to Pat Street and her fabulous cast and crew for a terrific production.

Get your funny bones ready for Neil Simon’s Rumors! This fast-paced farce is sure to delight. Opening October 13, Iain Macpherson and his talented cast and crew are hard at work getting ready to make you laugh.

See you at the theater.

Lynda
