•If you follow this link to the Theatre Communications Group, you’ll find the list of the Edgerton Foundation New American Play Awards from the first round of 2011.  I have to say that I’m pretty pleased that out of 19 of these awards given out nationally, two of them came from Michigan!  Way to go, Michigan theatre folks!

•It IS possible to be successful and not rude.  Kids out there, take notice.

•I love the show “Fringe”.  If you’re a fan, there’s a great podcast that you should check out:  The Fringe Podcast.  Also, if you watch the show, you’ll appreciate this video!

•We’ve entered a fun time in the theatre season: the picking of next year’s season!  I always enjoy this part, the piecing together of a season.  Playing mix and match with scripts and styles and genres and figuring out how to blend them all together into a season of things that the audience will love, the artists will love, we’ll all grow from, be entertained by, be challenged by.  It’s fun.  It’s also nerve-wracking, stressful, and exhausting… but it’s mostly fun!  🙂
