Dave Bowman the "owned" was a typo. But if you're willing.. :)

June,

You may get a bunch of us anyways.... Marty Vreeland (Associate LD) is an alumni of our program here (as well as a former Syracuse Stage staff member) and he's working on getting some of our students in on the process.  I know a couple of our Stage Management students are already tapped to tag along with the SM/PM folks...

I'm sure I will be around down there at some point.  I'll be sure to at least say hello and then let you get back at it (trust me, I understand)....   We will be ramping up for "Oz" at that point, so as he said I'll be busy being "owned" by Herrick (not sure if that excites me or terrifies me ;-) ).

I understand what you mean about the Landmark.  I'm surprised you're not in the Civic Center, but they may not have been as available for the multi-week sit-down.

Please do not hesitate to holler if I can be helpful while you're in town....

We're at 18 Trucks right now, so although I'm sure the Powers That Be would like to pare that down a little bit, I think we'll still end up comfortably in the double digits.

The show is probably not going to lose a lot of physical size - in fact, most of us are VERY nervous about fitting into the Landmark Theater. This rebuild is largely about modernizing the equipment and materials. In electrics land, it means getting rid of 15 year old dimmer doublers, MR16 mini strips, and similar outdated gear to switch to more LED, more modern moving Lights, and a more efficient power structure. Other departments are getting similarly overhauled with fresh pieces built with more modern materials and approaches.

While I'd love to see people and get tours of toys and such together, the reality is that a lot of our stay will mean working pretty much 8am to Midnight daily as we gather all of our designers, directors, and Production team together to build and tech this thing. It's going to be a job to find time to shower, much less do anything fun. I'm hoping, once the show is officially opened, to have a little more time to breathe. I will keep you all posted.

June
