Announcements for this week:
1) Drama drinkies & meeting
2) Arts Week review
3) Advertisers & Promoters
4) Upcoming plays
=== Drama Drinks ===
This Wednesday we will be having a meet & greet session in Matt Weldon's
Pub (The Slipper) from 9pm onwards. While we've been distracted staging
productions and dealing with errant actors and missing jazz bands, we've
never had a proper Members Night. This is traditionally where everyone tries
to get the committee drunk. Any suggestions/ questions/ complaints can also
be addressed to the nearest inebriated committee member for this one night
of the year. So 9pm, Wednesday. Mine's a Baileys :)
=== Arts Week Review ===
This year Arts Week scaled new heights, with Stars In Their Eyes generating
untold amounts of scandal, Eclectic Music Soc baring their all, One World
fecking some paint at everyone within reach, and Fotosoc getting everyone
well and truly sozzled in the middle of the day.
On behalf of Drama a big congrats has to go out to absolutely everyone involved
in the fantastic Stars in Their Eyes, the Opening Night crew (chicken balls,
anyone?), the Comedy Night orchestrators and the Short Play organisers.
Thank you to all responsible.
=== Advertisers & Promoters ===
Drama has always relied on an excellent publicity network to get a good
crowd to our events, and this year we've even more planned than before,
so we'll be putting together a small team to work out promotional strategies.
This means everything from designing posters to sticking them up, from flyers
and leaflets to webpages and e-mails, from printing tickets to selling them
to taking them on the door. If you've ever wanted to go into advertising
or design this is a fantastic opportunity, and it's the best experience
you can get for being PRO for any other society or organisation. Once you've
done Drama, you can do pretty much anything!
We'll be co-opting members for this team. If you're interested just mail
drama(a)redbrick.dcu.ie.
=== Upcoming plays ===
We have two excellent productions in their final stages - "Someone Who'll
Watch Over Me" is coming to the Helix next week and "Antigone" follows in
the Venue the week after. A lot of work has gone into both, so come along
and support your classmates and friends over the next two weeks. Watch An
Tarbh and your inboxes for more info!
As always, our fabulous website is to be found here
