[Drama-Committee] Announce Drama & Agenda (at bottom) read and check!!!
by Stephen Grimes 25 Feb '07

25 Feb '07

Howdy y'all, Wow... everything is in italics... how do I fix this... there we go... Here's a few upcoming events to wet your appetite!!! * Workshop with Ciaran Gray * Auditions for "The Extraordinary Life And Unfortunate Death Of Adam Ryan" * Iago * Casino Night ************************* Workshop This Thursday, March 1st, we are bringing in a professional drama instructor, Ciaran Gray, to hold an acting workshop in the Venue. This workshop, which covers everything from improvisation to dance, promises to be a load of laughs and all levels of ability (including none at all) are welcome, so come along! Its free in for all members but we will also be providing buckets at the workshop to collect money in aid of the Rag Week charities, so please be generous!!! 6pm, Thursday, March 1st, The Venue. See you there! ************************ Auditions for "The Extraordinary Life And Unfortunate Death Of Adam Ryan" It's got murder, it's got mystery, it's got love, sex, drugs, prostitution, and possibly the highest body count of any DCU Drama production to date. It's called 'The Extraordinary Life And Unfortunate Death Of Adam Ryan ' and it's coming to The Venue in Week 11. (Written by Alan Flanagan) We're looking for two actors (both male) who are willing to run the gamut from comedy to drama to being covered in fake blood, and we're holding auditions for these parts on Tuesday evening of this week. The broad range of characters means you're bound to find a part that suits you, and if you don't, hey, that's why they call it acting. *Tues 6pm - CG03/04* ********************************** Iago - Don't get mad... get EVIL!!! When cocky non-Venetian General Othello, elopes with the Senator's daughter Desdemona (ditsy-but-beautiful) on the same night that he promotes his (ambiguously camp) best-mate Cassio over the charming-but-ambitious Iago, he has no idea just how mad things are about to get. What ensues is a tale of passion, betrayal, revenge, deceit, lust, murder, back-stabbing, front-stabbing, jesters and bunny rabbits, with hilarious consequences. Iago is a comedic re-write of the famous Shakespearean story Othello. Written by stand-up comedian Aislinn O'Loughlin and directed by Stephen Grimes. Tickets are now available for this production that's taking place NEXT week on Mon 5th - Wed 7th of March in the Helix. Tickets are €8 (incl. booking fee) and are available either through the Helix box office or online at www.thehelix.ie. (Tickets for The Vagina Monologues, King Lear & The Full Monty are also available at the same e-mail address) Iago - Mon 5th - Wed 7th March - €8 - The Helix ***************************** Casino Night As alot of you have heard- the Casino Night takes place next (not this) Tuesday in the Hub. It's a "James Bond" black suit and tie event and promises to be one of the most entertaining events in DCU this year! All the money raised from tickets sales, gambling and sponsors goes towards the Research for Children's Cancer. Liam Printer (the bossman) is looking for helpers to give him a hand. If people could meet him in the Clubs & Socs Office in the Hub on Monday at 10am that would be great. If you are unavailable at that time but would still like to help then e-mail Liam at liam.printer(a)gmail.com and he'll find something for you to do! He has a variety of jobs and needs as much help as possible so if you're available then make sure to e-mail him! *************************** Agenda * Pick nominations for Best Fresher & Top 5 * Make up portofolio for best society - ISDA, update from Saturday's meeting - Thursday's workshop: buckets, poster etc -- Stephen Grimes AP2 Rep DCU Drama Chair 085 7079768 55456550

by Stephen Grimes 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

Hey guys, 1.) Meeting on Monday at 8pm. 2.) Table Quiz in NuBar on Tuesday at 7pm. Tis booked and is okay! GET YOUR QUESTIONS MADE UP! 3.) Bagpack next weekend? Or is that rumours? need to know for announce drama! 4.) Theatre trip? Pauric if that show is available and you wanna take a group we'll need to book it asap! So check it out. Ring them when ya get a chance. Get a price and give me details for announce drama. 5.) I contacted about hoodies and I found/made some designs for t-shirts and hoodies... (the t-shirts & hoodies are obviously not the ACTUAL design we will use but I had to show the guy something...) *Valueweight tee shirts printed as requested * ** *#50 - 99 - €11.50 each* *#100 - 250 - €8.90 each* ** *Ranks Hoodies printed as requested* ** *#50 - 99 - €26.15 each* *#100 - 250 - €23.55 each* ** *Personally I think we should buy 100 of both- we could sell the t-shirts at Full Monty and we could PUSH to sell 100 Drama hoodies (although I do admit that is a tad difficult, but not impossible- they could always do for next years committee!) * Thats it for now... Steve P.S. Designs are attached- check it out. -- Stephen Grimes AP2 Rep DCU Drama Chair 085 7079768 55456550
