Thinking ‘Outside the Box’ Office #2
July 3rd, 2009 Posted in UncategorizedHey again, this is Ty, Arts Administration Intern and Handsome Box Office Employee. So, we opened Into the Woods last night, and it went swimmingly! My mother and my host sister Isabella from Brazil came to visit and see the show. They both enjoyed it immensely. Isabella, who knew nothing about Grimm’s Fairy Tales, was quite amused and entertained. Also, I got to work backstage opening night. I am filling in for a member of the run crew, so I get to don my all-black outfit and shoot fire extinguishers and set off fog machines and be a puppeteer for Cinderella’s birds, it’s quite fun. See, I told you I get out of the Box Office sometimes. Last summer, I got my family tickets to a production of Into the Woods and they said this was a much better production. Last summer the show was in an outdoor amphitheater and it started to rain. At least we’ve got a roof over our heads here at Weathervane. But we still don’t have AC yet (So donate to Capital Campaign!) After the show we got Isabella a picture with a handsome prince, Morgan McCann. That made her day. Also, my mother had a nice conversation with Dennis Kohler, Weathervane veteran. It turns out that Dennis grew up in my hometown of Ashland, OH, so we had a lot to talk about. It really is a small world. So, tomorrow my girlfriend and her family are coming to see the show. It seems like all of my friends and family are coming this weekend, so make sure your friends and families come, too! See you at the ‘Vane!
