With so much going on here at Theatre VCU it's impossible to update our website fast enough to keep current. There are always new openings, castings, reviews, comedies, and tragedies - and that doesn't even describe what's on-stage!
So with the help of some witty and articulate grad, undergrad students and faculty we're lifting the curtain on a departmental blog that will explore the latest happenings and personalities on both the Richard Newdick Theatre, and the Raymond Hodges Theatre, as well as the rehearsal halls, design studios, student lounge, even that brick wall opposite the Shafer Street building.
We chose our blog title with a Survey Monkey Vote (thank you to all who participated) - and here are the results:
5th place: What’s New at TheatreVCU (6 votes) - Crystal Johnson
4th place: A Blog By Any Other Name... (9 votes) - Bryan Gabriel Lamorena
3rd place: The Read-Through (10 votes) - Alan Sader
2nd place: The Call Board (27 votes) - Alan Sader
1st place: TheatreVCU - A Backstage Pass (28 votes) - Melissa Terrell
Great ideas (it was hard to resist Miccki O'Carroll's blog, blog, damn spot), but everyone wants a backstage pass - and it squeaked by with one vote - Thank you Melissa Terrell, call the Box Office to arrange your comp tickets for our last week of Dead Man's Cell Phone.
Speaking of which, what a clever funny little show. The audience has loved it - what's not to love?!

with more questions than there are answers...
We have one more wonderful weekend of our first Mainstage Production Dead Man's Cell Phone - Thursday - Saturday at 7:30 pm and Suday at 3:00 pm, and for the first time you can order tickets on-line at vcutheatre.showclix.com
Tonight is our opening night of our two-night presentation of our annual First-Year Discovery Project (FDP) in the Newdick. Sorry... the general public cannot attend this Theatre Department baptism. But we hope to see the entire Theatre VCU family supporting our first-year performance majors on their inaugral appearance on the Newdick stage. FDP is always wonderfully entertaining - for all the right (and sometimes a couple of wrong) reasons. Funny, sweet, moving and surprising - don't miss it - the fun begins at 7:30 pm. Break legs First-year actors!!
... and scene.
