Welcome Laura Anderson

Laura Anderson is our first volunteer from volunteermatch.org so a very special welcome to her.

She used to be active in high school and college theater and is looking for a way to get back into it (other than as a spectator).

Her resume features many useful office skills especially with PC applications. That should come in handy with the administrative side of RGTC.

Ushers Needed for "New Brain" and "Orange Flower Water"


We need ushers for our June shows:
  • New Brain (NB) is a hilarious new musical.

  • Orange Flower Water (OFW) is a drama by Craig Wright.
Note that the Saturday and Sunday shifts are TWO-show shifts (OFW & NB) with a short break in-between. The Saturday shift gets out at around 10:30-11pm pm while the Sunday shift gets out at around 9:30-10pm. On the plus side, you get to see two entirely different shows.

The Friday shifts are the standard one-show shift (NB only).

If you volunteer for Saturday and Sunday, we'd prefer that you do both shows. But if you can only do one show, let me know and we'll see what can be worked out.

Here's where we need volunteers.

Sat. 6/7: (OFW&NB) Call Time 3:00pm
Sun. 6/8: (NB&OFW) Call time 1:00pm
Sat. 6/21: (OFW&NB) Call time 3:00pm
Sat. 6/28: (OFW&NB) Call time 3:00pm
Sun. 6/29: (NB&OFW) Call time 1:00pm
Sat. 7/5: (OFW&NB) Call time 3:00pm

As always, these go fast so let me know ASAP by using the email in the upper-left.

Tech People Needed for "Orange Flower Water"

Our 2nd stage production of "Orange Flower Water" by Craig Wright needs people to run sound and lights. This is perfect for those of you who want to be involved backstage but don't like the late nights because the show runs on Saturdays at 4pm and Sundays at 7pm from June 7 (Sat) to July 6 (Sun). The show runs an hour and thirty minutes.

Though experience is helpful, we will train the right person. It is a surprisingly easy job and you get to observe the nuances of a show from behind-the-scenes.

Tech people need to attend the following rehearsals as well:

  • June 31 (Sat) 10am-2pm, for a run through of the show,

  • July 1 (Sun) 10am-? for tech dress, and

  • July 2 (Mon) - July 4 (Wed) for final dress and tech.

If you can make some days but not others, let us know because there may be flexibility in scheduling.

Email me at the address on the left ASAP if you're interested.
