Mount Vernon Campus - FROM SCRATCH, THEATRE - Thursday June 5th
I'd like to invite you and your students to come and witness some interesting, intelligent theatre this Thursday - June 5 - at 2:15 in the Phil Tarro Theatre. For free.
These 12 students (divided into two groups) created two shows in a pressurized 8-10 hours, starting last week. They created, FROM SCRATCH, and using their Viewpoints Training, two theatre pieces based on the theme "Fear".
Together, working entirely on their own, with no help from Faculty, they devised two shows that are vastly different in tone, and remarkable to witness.
I saw their performance yesterday, and was amazed the the originality and quality of this production. Because of this, it was decided to perform for a larger audience (Tomorrow), Thursday 2:15 PM in the Phillip Tarro Theatre.
The house opens at 2:00 PM...
Thanks,
Mark-O

Regarding the graffiti reported last week, Dr. Tollefson said in an email to Mount Vernon students yesterday that all of the information suggests there is a relatively low safety risk and he plans to conduct business as usual for Cardinal Day.

He encourages everyone to join him at Cardinal Day!
