Drama Junior Tech Room (please)
By Emma, Loie, Ella, and Katherine
Intro
Every fall and spring a club called drama junior has a show in the cafeteria. It is really fun but one thing is that we don’t have any place to store the things that make up our show and it is very frustrating. We either have to keep a lot of the things in our director's car or at the back of the stage so we can never know if anyone was messing around with our things so here are some more reasons!
Reasons why
Drama Jr. is a program in the spring and fall (also in the summer) where we use the Lake Bluff cafeteria stage for our performances. We have all of the actors (about 30) and tech (about 10) in the cafeteria. And with some people goofing off it gets hard to focus. Especially since this week was tech week and the tech people were fitting costumes and asking if they fit, it got really loud. So loud that the director (Ms. Van Loon) could not hear the actors in front of her on the stage. So this is why we should have a tech room so the tech can do what they’re supposed to away from the actors so it can be quieter and the actors and Ms. Van Loon can focus on our production.
MORE Reasons Why
First of all, as we said before, we use our stage in the cafeteria for our performance. As you all witnessed, some of our lake bluff staff (Mr. Kriegle, Ms. A.O.K, and Ms. Harrison) got pied in the face. Now I don't know why but there is probably a reason why the yellow curtain was up. Now, this means that because we keep our costumes behind that curtain they almost got PIE on them!!!!!
Conclusion
These are all the reasons why Drama Jr needs a tech room please , please, please consider getting/ making a tech room. If you support our group start speaking up to try and help us get a tech room.
