November 19, 2007: New Century Players, Chameleon Scrim, and "School House Rock Live!"Â2007 by Neighborhood Stage Productions, LLC
This week we turn the spotlight on New Century Players in Milwaukie, Oregon. We spend some time with Kelley Marchant, Managing Director of New Century Players. Kelly tells us about the history of this relatively new organization, its programs, venues, and future plans.
We also spend some time this week talking about Chameleonâ scrim, an inexpensive alternative to expense sharks tooth scrim. Susanne Riehle, owner of Studio Productions, Inc. in Elizabethtown, Indiana, joins us to tells us about Chameleonâ scrim and some of it unique properties.This week we keep the archive open and bring you a "Show of the Week" we first brought you back in October 2006. It comes from Vania Falen, a director with the Players Club of Swarthmore in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania. Vania tells us about the exciting musical, "School House Rock Live!"
We continue our "Broadway News (in five minutes or
less)" segment (complete with "Strike Watch 2007"), have some more community theatre news, our "Editors
Gone Wild" headline segment, and,
of course, tell you "What's New to Do!"
