Saturday Rehearsal!
Hello everyone! Hope that your week has been going well.
Just to reiterate for tomorrow, we are meeting at 10 am to hold MTC Elections in BSB 115. We're not sure if we'll be able to get into our normal room due to some Engineering thing that is going on tomorrow.
Please be prompt, we need the whole company there to hold these elections. So please be there at 10am, regardless of what time your rehearsal is supposed to start.
Thanks!

School Groups
Hi Everyone!
For this year's performances we're hoping to have two matinee performances during the week - specifically targeted at school groups.
So far we've had a couple of people send contact information for schools they went to who could be interested. But we do need more.
If anyone knows of a school that may be interested in attending our performances, would you please forward their contact information to: pontefaj@mcmaster.ca.
Hope that you are all enjoying the rest of your holidays, and Happy New Year!
Thanks,
Alex.

Facebook group!!
Well, it's finally here. Sorry this took so long ...
The group is closed at the moment, subject to change. I've added everyone I had on my facebook to it, which unfortunately is not very many people in the company currently. If you would like to become a member, just search for "McMaster Thespian Company" and it should show up.
It's a bit bare bones at the moment, but more pictures will be added soon and we'll be creating individual events for the show.
Hope everyone is doing well, good luck with exams and have a great holiday!
