WELCOME BACK TO THE PLAYERS

Hello, hello, hello! It's been over a year since our last post. Some significant updates: Trine is now a full-time student at The New School in NYC where we wish her all the best success! I finished at Smith in December of 2008, and this past June I welcomed my first child Finn into the world. As you can imagine it's been a busy year for me personally and simultaneously our previous ensemble were all moving on to new and exciting activities as young adults which meant that last year was a lull, a necessary fallow time for the fields to replenish, and this year the North Star Players are kicking back into action! We have a new time slot - 10:00-11:30am on Tuesdays. We have an open focus as we get to know each other and create our new ensemble. We'll be studying viewpoints, Composition, elements of the Suzuki method, LeCoq techniques, multi-media techniques, taking field trips to see local performances, playing games, reading scripts, and generally having a blast while we decide how to shape ourselves for the coming year. Expect to see a mainstage again next spring, possibly another one-act festival sooner. If you haven't come to class before, now is an excellent time to join!!! Hope we see you at class or in the audience. Cheers!
