The Last 7:00pm Meeting in January 2010

If you've been following the festival for awhile, you should know the War Cry of 14/48:

Artist Liaison: 8 o'clock show?

All: OPENING NIGHT ENERGY!!!

Artist Liaison: 10:30 show?

All:  CLOSING NIGHT ENERGY!!!!

Artist Liaison:  If you think you're talking too loud?

All:  SPEAK UP

Artist Liaison: and if you start feeling tired?

All:  RAISE THE FUCKING STAKES!!!!!

Therese Henning, owner of the Seattle Body Bar, is providing massages for artists through the 8pm show.

Tech was a real bitch with the light board losing all pre-set cues from last week and last night.  Derek Van Heel restored EVERYTHING in 40 minutes.  That's why tech started late.  It was a technical error.  Nobody had anything to do with it.  If you could have fixed the board in under 40 minutes and you didn't have the exact tech experience you wanted, then you may bitch.

Otherwise, say "Thank you Derek Van Heel for staying calm and professional.  If I can write you a letter of recommendation to NYU's Tisch School of the Arts' MFA Lighting Design Program to which you're applying, I'd be happy to help you."

Play #4 has live fire in it.  Murphy is in charge of the fire extinguisher.  Do not fuck with it, do not fuck with her during show #4.
