Dear Committee,

I hope al is well in committee land. I would like to produce the
musical if the offer is still there. If chosen, I will fully commit to
it as producer. Time constraints should not be a
worry to me after Christmas, even with CA Intra likely to start the
second week of April (assuming i get grinds in time management!..
Sinead, if you have a spare few minutes???). Before exams they are
however.

Unlike last year I would need support in all aspects of
production and will need the committee to be fully behind the
production side of things and ready to help. The work load will get
immense and with Bobby boy not around, there is going to be a lot of
off campus stuff to look after aswell. I would like to choose a
production team and get the committees approval on it.

My other previous concern was working with the director. I have made
no secret of the fact that I was team Donnelly but what's done is
done. I am a friend
of rebeccas and know her ways well but have never worked with her on
such a large scale for anything before. My worries lie in the fact
that in previous plays, musicals and pantos she proved to be a fair
bit of an annoyance to me to be honest!.. I would do my best to look
beyond this and no doubt everything would be rosey.. however, if she
starts having D4 needy moments or trys to increase the amount of naked
cast from 6 to 100 and Collis ain't around, I will be picking up my
089 device and calling a Tweed!.. Full stop!.. Actually it'll have to
be you Jenni. Conor is on 083 and tesco mobile prohibit us from
calling those chancers for our own safety. If it's a 'need an
ambulance' situation or I'm really really stuck, I will use my
financial imploder of an O2 phone as a last resort (every offense
Maeve).

I am excited about the possibility of getting descretionary funding
(separate to sponsorship) from the university through Martin Conry
whom I have chatted to about the notion of securing already. If he
starts to back down, we can fire the torpedo that is Marie-Louise and
watch him beg for mercy! (The money is there if looked for!.. Just
like John McKeown got 12k for six semesters from DCU) This together
with the fact that there is about to be an appointment of a new helix
CEO whom Una Redmond has informed me is introducing a cut down society
usage rate (and ye didn't sign anything yet... :-| ?) means that this
show could have very handsome financial backing. Also with the genius
that is Kevin back at the helm and the re emergence of music soc, the
band situation looks healthy. With all this in consideration and given
the talent in this place.. It can really only be, if nothing else...
an epic show of massive proportions! :D

It was an awful lot of work last year but at the end of the day.. What
we achieved with RENT x2 and even FAME the year before was something
special which we are going to have forever to say we were a part of :)
In many years time we will have forgotton 90% of the manure we learn
in college but I bet you we'll have helix memories forever and a life
time!

I feel like melted cheese.

Now, lets make HAIR follow those previous shows footsteps only lets
make bigger ones!.. There is every reason we can. Drama can and Drama
will because at the end of the day, when all is spoken and finished..
There is no better society!

Roasted cheese now.

Time to stop typing. Please let me know your decision.

May Holy Mary bless you all.

Ed Away!
