SPRING QUARTER:
SHE KILLS MONSTERS
By Qui Nguyen Directed by Martin Noyes
On the night of her graduation from college, Agnes Evans made a grand wish she would forever regret- that her life might become less boring. She is granted her wish in an unexpected and tragic fashion when every single one of her loved ones, including her younger sister, Tilly, dies in a car crash. In Nguyen’s imaginative, moving, and magical play, Agnes searches for her lost sister in the world of Dungeons and Dragons, where role playing and fighting monsters, both real and imagined, bring the two sisters to a level of friendship they never were able to enjoy in life.

URINETOWN
Music by Mark Hollmann
Lyrics by Mark Hollmann and Greg Kotis
Book by Greg Kotis
Directed by Michael Wainstein – Musical Direction by Kevin Wallace
One of the most uproariously funny musicals in recent years, Urinetown is a hilarious tale of greed, corruption, love, and revolution in a time when water is worth its weight in gold. In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. A hero decides he’s had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!
Inspired by the works of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, Urinetown is an irreverently humorous satire in which no one is safe from scrutiny. Praised for reinvigorating the very notion of what a musical could be, Urinetown catapults the “comedic romp” into the new millennium with its outrageous perspective, wickedly modern wit, and sustained ability to produce gales of unbridled laughter.

SCAD EVENTS!!
Film Collaboration Group, 16 by 9
I want your students to know about and become involved with the Film Collaboration Group, 16 by 9. To make a great film, it takes the talents of many majors. Unfortunately, not all of those majors collaborate enough (or even talk to each other at all). This is where I need your help. Share this email with your students. Let them know that we need their talents!
For starters, we are having a meeting on April 10th, Hamilton Hall (SCAD Blue Line), Studio A, 8pm. We will have a local producer in TV, Jody Jenkins, speaking about showing our SCAD films on his station, SGTV. He wants live-action and animation projects. Then we will pitch projects and ourselves. So your students can join a project that needs their talents or they can pitch what their talents are. We encourage bringing business cards or take-aways.
https://www.facebook.com/events/434403446646566
Any other time, they can post on our Facebook wall- https://www.facebook.com/16by9 Our website is looking for a web designer to update and revamp it, so we could also use students with those skills too.
Majors Needed:
FILM- of course, but there are still students out there that don’t know what a great resource we are.
SOUND- we already have a great relationship with PASO, but let’s do even more.
PERFORMING ARTS- there’s nothing worse than a filmmaker’s roommate’s acting- we need your actors.
PRODUCTION DESIGN- Film is not the dark side, theater is great, I agree, but why can’t students do both? Let’s break the stigma.
WRITERS- directors rarely write well, no matter what they say. Help us make better stories/scripts.
MOTION MEDIA- taking one CMPA class doesn’t make you an AE pro, so we need designers to snazz up our productions the right way.
GRAPHIC DESIGN- have you seen the posters directors make themselves? Not pretty. Have you seen our club posters? Also, not pretty.
PRODUCERS- like a good man, a good producer is hard to find (and worth their weight in gold when you do). Help us get organized.
ANIMATION- we want to do animations too! Let’s make a bridge between Hamilton and Monty!
VISUAL EFFECTS- how are we going to be the next Michael Bay without you? *cringes* Seriously though, we need you.
STORYBOARDING- is that character looking left or right? Wide shot or Close-up? Stop the ambiguous stick-figure syndrome, so we all know what we’re looking at.
EVERYONE ELSE- if you got an artistic talent, we can probably use it! We need helpers, runners, cooks, dry shoulders to cry on, we need it all!
We will also be looking for Board Members for our group. Graduate President, Web Director, Events Director.
If you have any questions or ideas for future collaboration projects, feel free to contact me- jdotson@scad.edu
Thank you,
Ms. Jordan Dotson, President
