Great selections for this season. I just directed Dearly Departed and was told it was my "best one yet!" Grease is fun too! You'll pack the house. May I offer the suggestion (since you're in the "Bible Belt") to keep the dancing "clean." I directed this show at a private school and insisted on keeping the language and dance moves clean. It worked, so don't let anyone tell you it has to be "dirty" to be good. If you're looking for comedy try: Neil Simon's Rumors (you'll have to edit the language), John Patrick's The Curious Savage, and Paul Freed's Death by Chocolate. When you get ready to do a drama, look at Arthur Miller's All My Sons. A musical that's also a lot of fun is Bye Bye Birdie. A lot of the same costuming as Grease. Fun music too. I'm directing Steel Magnolias this spring. Any suggestions for the set design?
