***BUSTies***
BUSTies this year is in the SMG Ballroom on May 2nd!! The cost for BUSTies is $5, and if  you were not at the General Meeting tonight, then you MUST find Allie Romano and Chris Hamilton at some point during the week to get your money to them!

Plans for the Weekend....

Did you really wanna take that cute girl on a date, but realized that your mom forgot to put money in your bank account? Did you just waste your entire paycheck on pizza and forgot to save some for a night out with friends?? ....WELL FEAR NOT!!!

This weekend do not miss the Stage Troupe Spring One Acts Festival!!!! (Otherwise known as 'He Can't Go out There because of the Blizzard as reported by the Southern Belle on the News')

I think the title pretty much says it all, but we have poor presidential imposters, creepy couples, an abundance of glass cocktail stirrers, and really bipolar newscasters. If that doesn't sound intriguing, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS.

These spectacular One Acts are:
He Can't Go Out There!- Written by Kelly Dickinson and Directed by Julie Kaminski
The Blizzard- Directed by Celia Gibson
For Whom the Southern Belle Tolls- Directed by Travis Cherry
Exposition News- Written and Directed by Joe Gambino

All performances will be held at 8pm on Friday, April 20th and Saturday, April 21st in Jacob Sleeper Auditorium. The best part about One Acts is...IT'S FREE!!! So you don't even have to worry about messing up that date night.

So come out, sit back, and enjoy the show!! You'll be sure to enjoy every minute of it!
