If you have a script or vocal book - there is a BOX under the sign-in sheet. Drop it in !! This is very important to remember, you will be charged for it if not returned.
There are t-shirts still for sale, see me.
Have you ever worked with Lisa Hulber??? She is the local lighting technical lady with blonde hair? Very sweet and funny!
