A report from the front lines: The Daytona State Theatre Program has landed in Murfreesboro, TN! We are very excited. Six of our actors (JP, Gage, Aaron, Melissa, Paige, and Sloan), a costume designer (Kristina) and a stage manager (Lindsey) are ready to compete for awards in this national competition (The Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival). I will also be serving as a responder for Irene Ryan Award auditions.
We made the 10 hour drive by leaving Daytona at around 3pm yesterday. We made a pit stop in Marietta, GA and then finished the last leg of the trip today. We also gained an hour as we entered Central Time!!
SNOW!! This group from Daytona Beach was THRILLED to see snow on the ground. An impromptu snow ball fight broke out when we arrived at the motel in Murfreesboro. I also heard rumor of a snow man being made, but this two day old snow might not hold up too well. I am keeping my fingers crossed though.
Keep your fingers crossed for our students as well! They have all worked very hard on their auditions and presentations and I am so proud of them. Also, a big thank you to SGA for the funding for this trip. You all are awesome. More soon from Tennessee!
Geoffrey Kershner
Director of Theatre
