Exciting News

Posted: May 25, 2009

The dream of a new building continues. After a productive brainstorming workshop consisting of theatre members and facility users, a preliminary floor plan has been drawn up to reflect the requirements for a new building. Some of the features will include:

  • wider stage with a sprung floor
  • much larger dressing room
  • lots of storage space for props and costumes
  • triple the seating capacity
  • full size rehearsal stage
  • theatre society meeting room
  • ample parking
  • "green roof" technology
  • Geothermal heating
  • office rental space for other arts groups
  • possibly a full size dance studio, orchestra pit and a trap door on the stage.

If you have any great ideas, it's not too late to get in on the planning stage. Send your ideas to Jake Jacobson .
Be part of the future today.

Ozone Festival

It was an exciting week in Summerland!  From May 17 to 23, six plays were presented, with each receiving a two hour critique by the adjudicator, Garry Davey, the morning after the performance.  These morning sessions were a wonderful learning experience for cast, crew and audience members alike.  Finally on Saturday evening, awards were presented.  Shuswap Theatre's production of Emily, came home with two awards - BEST ENSEMBLE and  SPECIAL RECOGNITION FOR VISUAL PRESENTATION.  Armstrong's Asparagus Theatre was presented the award for BEST PRODUCTION. Their play, Spoon River Anthology, will represent the Okanagan Zone at Mainstage Festival in Maple Ridge from July 3 to 11.  We wish them luck!  For the full list of awards, visit the ozone website at www.theatrebc.org/OKZ/OKZFest09.html.  There are also lots of photographs of the festival in the current Ozone Newsletter.
