Stage Notes
East Lincoln High School Chorus & Theatre Newsletter
Welcome!
November 2018
The Stage Notes Newsletter is published the first of every month and contains lots of information about both the Theatre Arts and Choral Music programs at East Lincoln High School. We want to try not only to get the word out about upcoming performances but also to keep our community up-to-date on what our students are doing and how they can partner with us to produce the highest quality programs.
If you have friends, family, or neighbors who would enjoy this monthly look into theatre and chorus, share with them our website, www.EastLincolnOnStage.org, and they can sign up to receive the newsletter at the bottom of any page.
Thanks for being a part of our performing arts community!
That's A Wrap!
Fall of 2018 has been an exciting time for the choral and theatre programs at East. "Steel Magnolias" was our first production of the year and was hilariously performed to roughly 140 audience members in three performances. The chorus students took to the stage for their fall concert sharing a variety of selections from sacred, patriotic, and popular genres. And, the curtain just closed on the Theatre Arts class production of "Leaving Iowa." With tons of hilarity and pure sentiment, this show spoke to everyone's experiences of family travels.

Extreme Makeover: Theater Edition
All artists deserve a venue where they are able to share their work with others in an environment that dignifies not only the finished product but also the creative process. With the absence of an auditorium, we are trying to create such a space for our performers and community members. In previous years, steps were taken to begin a conversion process making the current theatre classroom a more formal black box environment. We have continued with that work this fall and are very excited about what we have been able to accomplish thus far. Unfortunately, the next few steps are not only the largest but also the most expensive. To truly make this space a proper performance environment, we need to add a theatrical grid on the ceiling, curtains, and a lighting system. It is our hope that there are performing arts supporters in our community that would enjoy contributing and being a part of this very exciting transformation! If you are interested in contributing to our "Extreme Makeover" or would like more information about the project, please contact director Greg Franklin at gregory.franklin@lcsnc.org.
We hope you will also share this information with others in our community so that others know of the need and have an opportunity to be a part of this work.
