Note from
the executive producer- T3 Dash Award winner: Our own Kaleigh
Ronan won the DASH award for Best Child Actor for her
performance in last years Music Man. She was so excited and
looked really cute last night. She also had many people
there to cheer her on so I am glad she won. Assassins beat
out our supporting actors Craig Howard and John Linden and
West Side Story got the Best Musical. We had a good showing
and I had a good time. It was fun to see everyone dressed
up. I think we should have gotten more awards, we had great
candidates, but at least we were nominated and we have
three more shows to try again. I have submitted all our
shows for the season. Good luck and work hard. - Mary
KEVIN GOES WILD!!!!!
This summer
Kevin and his crew of destructors have torn out the wall
between the mens and ladies dressing rooms and created a
whole new space with much better storage areas for
costumes. Special thanks to Kevin and all of the people who
have braved the summer heat to make our theater a better
place to be. See more pictures of the
renovation

Theatre III regular
Linda Potter is
working on a degree in Direction at Emerson during her
sabbatical year. She and
Jeanie Furlan just
finished directing "My Favorite Year" at ABRHS.
Linda's son
Jason Potter recently
finished the national tour of "Mama Mia!" with 527
performances to his name. He has had enough traveling and
auditioning so is now in law school in New York. He is just
as obsessive about studying law as he was about acting, so
he is the top student in his school.
Also, congrats to
Sherry and Tom Ryder for
their new granddaughter. We've been remiss in sharing this
with you (forgive us!), and she's almost a year old now.
