That's right. It's May.
One month and twelve days until the performance.
We had the photo shoot yesterday, May 1st, and it went awesomely. :D I need to be sure to put Steven Akins on the program for the performance. He said it'd take about a week for the photos to be complete, and I will most definitely post them on here when they're ready. :)
However.
We clearly are still having some costume issues.
- Travis, you're set, as far as I know. You need to find the pinstriped pants, but you've got a backup pair of black ones, so I don't worry about you.
- Katherine, you're the narrator, so you're good. It'd be cool if our dresses were identical, though.
- Fernandez, you need a suit jacket.
- Shianne, you need a NOT see-through yellow shirt. XP
- Emily, I'm thinking you need a bigger black shirt because you keep having to pull yours down while dancing. Also, we're going to slaughter you with make-up, so prepare yourself.
- Lindsey, you may need an outfit for the dark, but I'm not sure.
- Haylie, you need a neutral outfit, but I think you told me you could dress in blue? Blue shirt and blue shorts/skirt is what I need.
- Kevin, you need a red neutral outfit, which you told me you'd have. XP And you also need a pinstriped jacket.
And I think that's it...
I'll attempt to acquire said items at EARC.
We STILL need to finish Life is Looking Up and The Oracle, but the rest is done. :D
Cristin, The Red Cup emissary, got us some swiveling stage lights and my uncle, Mike, is letting us borrow an amazingly large speaker that can plug into an iPod, so we're technologically covered! :D

NOW FOR THE SET.
I talked to Devin Kellerman and she said she'd be willing to help us out with the artwork! :D Thank you, Devin.
So, to clear up any confusion, I will list the ideas I have for the set design:
I want there to be three to four wood panels that we can lean on the back of the stage.
On one side of the panels, I want the setting to be of The Dark, which consists of a dark, grimy cityscape. Not to mention several posters of the character Pallis.
So with a texture like
this.
And a scenery like
this.
On the other side of the panels, I want the setting to be of The Light, which consists of a bright, blissful landscape. Also, we need to include a castle-esque sort of feel. Like a castle made of trees, drenched in vines and flowers, maybe. Or maybe no castle at all and simply a clearing in a forest where there royal family resides. As long as we get the importance of nature across.
So with a style like
this and
this.
And a scenery like
this and
this.
What do you guys think?
