[Drama-Committee] Let's Get Bizee...Orientation Week
Hey all, Thanks to Joe (and a firm welcome home too) for sending out that Committee e-mail. Let's cross some i's and dot some t's here... (1) Orientation Week begins on Monday 19th of September. By that stage, DCU should be decked with DCU DRAMA posters, etc. And I mean, not a single place should be empty. Maybe we could incorporate a new poster idea especially for Freshers Week...DCU DRAMA needs you, etc. (2) And this is important,Sarah Farrell (our wonderful and REALLY nice SU President) has kindly informed me that we can stuff some DCU DRAMA fliers or something of that sort into the Fresher Packs that each First Year will be receiving. One problem is that we'll have to do this ourselves as the bags come pre-packed. So we need volunteers to do the bag stuffing...Hands up!! I would imagine that we (the committee) should all lend a hand and I await a response from Ms. Farrell as to when the bags will be arriving but it WILL be soon. (3) As regards our schedule for Freshers Week, the only item on our timetable was DRAMA GAMES for the Wednesday...if Dave could get in touch with the delectable Martin French about that?? (4) I'll probably be getting a schedule for Orientation in a minute via another e-mail so I'll keep in touch with this list as to the best times, etc. But if anyone has other idea's for the week, possibly at night time, get back to us. Also, and this is just a guess, anyone out there going to forward themselves for the mentoring programme? Any Drama member...you see where I'm going with this...!! (5) I strongly agree with Joe about a meeting. I will only be in Dublin before Orientation, the weekend beforehand, i.e. the All-Ireland Final weekend (C'mon the Rebels)...Sunday morning (the 11th) or even the Saturday night (the 10th) would be good for me. Other than that, because of work, nada. Apologies. (6) With regard to everything else, Shelley- sponsorship? How are we with this? Banks (AIB), big business', childrens homes, charities...anything!! Phaxx, I know you've been up to your lids with computer stuff in the States...any chance of the website getting a semi-makeover in the run-up to Freshers Week?? Dave, any luck with the musicals we discussed??And Shane...are we bankrupt yet?? (7) Possible good news. I've forged a link with a Wexford Performance Group called Bui Bolg who specialise in mad-cap and zany 8 foot high funny looking characters and general craziness...ness...ness...ness. I'm currently trying to thrash out details with their Manager, Colm Lowney over appearing at the Clubs 'n' Socs Day and possibly helping us with other productions...Monty Python Day...Even Freshers Week for DCU GAMES?? Anyway, that's all for now. That's all that my brain can handle. Hugs and kisses, [eoc] [eoc] "I'm a friend first, boss second...probably entertainer third." (David Brent) "Yeah. I think the Irish are going through a major image change. I mean, the old image of Leprechauns, shamrock, Guinness, horses running through council estates, toothless simpletons, people with eyebrows on their cheeks, badly tarmacced drives ? in this country, men in platform shoes being arrested for bombings, lots of rocks, and Beamish. I think people are saying ?yes, there?s more to Ireland than this?. A good slogan for the tourist board ? [adopts bad Irish accent] ?Dere?s more to Oireland dan dis.?

There'll be very little I can do before fresher's week, I arrive back in the country on the 16th, wrecked. I'll be around for all of orientation week though, and can get stuff done then. Joe asked for the year calendars: www.dcudrama.ie/calendar/ Both semesters, in html and xls. They're not complete, there's most of semester 2 missing for some reason. Probably some inaccuracies in the first semester too, but hopefully all the most important stuff is there! Eoin, your signature is as frightful as Bob's. :)
Hello drama committee great to talk to you all again, its just like old times. i was just sitting there doing nothing at work and an idea that could would work well for dcu drama struck me. you could involve MPS (bonus spc points for cross society involvment) The new PODCAST phenonememememememem has hit the internet and everybody is hoping on board. why dont you get some drama members to write short 5 - 10 minute radio plays, get your asses into the studio in the smelly gratton building and record them, and publish them on itunes. Get the work of dcu drama out there to the general world population. it would be great. i know i'd listen. think it over and let me know what you think.

righttt, first things first we are lacking the green stuff. Yep i know, HOW DID THIS HAPPEN. We have around -30 in the account. I have put i for over a grand but i wont be able to pick up the cheques until i get back from florida, where i am now. However all that lovely money that i have managed to scrap together is going to have to pay the rights company from sweet charity. Again, i know this is pretty shit. I only found out about the rights thing 2 weeks ago. Before that everything was fab and we had plenty of dosh. OH, and to make matters worse, the scores from the musical have not yet been sent back. i've been told that claire is sorting it. Also, with this new grant ap system from the spc, getting our asp approved may take time though in theory it shoud be quicker and more efficient. I aint totally sure wat the story is here. Regarding meeting up , im back in ireland on the 11th so i can meet up from the 11th onwards. I Finally, if anybody is on campus befroe i get back, could you please drop into una redmond to collect our cheques and lodge them to the back, as she's only back from holiday today. Right, the end of an extremely long and boring email. I'm going back to Universal fro a couple more hours before it closes, so good night.

Hey there folks, ok here's the deal with sponsorship at the moment. I have a meeting with Conor Buckley who is workin for clubs around town who apparently want to sponsor us. I was supposed to meet up with him this week but he wasnt able to so hopefully next week he'll be able to. As for the prizes for the karaoke, i went round to all the shops on henry street askin for vouchers prizes etc and got the same answer from all.. you have to go through main office..so that shall be fun on monday tryin to do that. As for orientation week, in case anyone has forgotten.. i won't be around cuz i hafta go for a week away as part of my course grrrrrrr so i'll be around until the 17th and then won't be back till the day lectures start. so any time before then suits for a meeting so lemme know Shelly On 9/1/05, Charlie Von Metzradt <phaxx@redbrick.dcu.ie> wrote:
