If you want to be part of the show but you're not sure what you want to do, let us know--we can help you brainstorm!

Acting workshop November 5, 4:30, A-300

We'll have an acting-focused workshop at 4:30pm on THIS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, in A-300 auditorium. This workshop will be led by Bill Pendergast, whom many of you met at the audition workshop two weeks back. This will focus on preparing monologues, so please, bring a monologue or two--ideally, bring a monologue or two that you might like to perform in our upcoming performance on December 10! Remember, the theme of the December 10 performance is social justice issues (abuse, violence, poverty, sexuality, race, gender, and many, many more), so please choose a monologue that fits in with a social justice issue. As always, please email Monica Poole, mcpoole at bhcc dot mass dot edu if you have any questions.
