Fundraising, rehearsals, graduation, awards banquets, ABC7's Coolest School, and barbeques! Phew! That's what we've been up to in a nutshell! Literally.
LBHS Theatre was selected by ABC7 as one of the finalist for their COOL SCHOOL contest. The winning school is awarded a one year scholarship to Edison College! We hope to win this presitigous honor and get the extra press and recognition. Please help us win by voting on every computer you can, and spread the word! http://www.abc-7.com/CoolSchools/
Our fundraising count is up to $35,500!! Thank you to everyone! We can see our dream getting closer and closer. It is all because of our unified vision, hard work, and extremely dedicated fans! Thank you everyone for believing in us and spreading the word! Over 200 people have contributed to our 1500 @ $50 Campaign...and even more have sent donations of various amounts! Our Block Party Barbeque was a ton of fun and a huge success...thanks in part to Mary Peterson, Cody Becker, and Barnacle Bill's!! Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time, the cast that performing in 90 degree weather, and the rain that held out!
We are back in rehearsal mode having just finished a four hour rehearsal on Memorial Day! Never a dull moment. We are tweaking vocal numbers, tightening up large dance numbers, compensating for cast members that can't join us in Nebraska and prepping for upcoming performance engagements such as our mini performance at the Fellowship Church, Sunday, May 31st at the 10 AM Service, LBHS Baccaleaureate at the Englewood Methodist Church, Wed, May 27th, and the Fox Morning Blend Monday, June 1st at 9 AM.
Our seniors are prepping for graduation on Friday, May 29th and making plans for their futures! We enjoyed a very long but fun (and emotional) Awards Banquet. All participants in "The Wedding Singer," "Aida," Districts, States, and Internationals received recognition along with the End of Year Speciality Awards such as Best Actor/Actress, Thespian, Ensemble, Tech, etc. The night was capped with the amazing Senior Roast videos (done by the juniors and will be posted on here soon), appointment of the 2009/2010 Officers.
Thanks for following our journey! Remember - "attitude is altitude"...you choose your own.
