Happy Holidays!

Hello all!

The snow has really been coming down these past few days, and it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas! The cast and crew of "The Miss Firecracker Contest" have been hard at work for the past couple of months between school and rehearsals. As fall semester comes to a close, everyone will take a break before returning with full force and excitement next January. The next time I write for you we will be in the final stretch leading up to performances. To all of our college students, good luck with finals. Happy holidays everyone, and have a great winter break! 

See you in 2017!

Meet the Props Masters!

Scottie Deming

Isabella Rostrepo-Toro

Meet the CSS Theatre’s propmasters, Isabella Rostrepo-Toro and Scottie Deming! These ladies are responsible for finding and making all of the props for the various productions throughout the theatre season. Props are crucial to the success of a performance. If you attended a performance for “The Diary of Anne Frank”, you most likely saw how full the set was. Every room had pictures on the walls, books on the shelves, and miscellaneous items everywhere that made it entirely convincing that you were sitting inside the Frank’s household. Many hours of work go into finding and creating props. Special attention is given to the date of the prop to ensure that they are all time period appropriate. Whether or not a prop will match the others is also taken into account. Next time you come to see a production at CSS, pay close attention to the props on the set - the detail put into them will astound you!

As always it is a pleasure to blog for you.

Have a great week!
