General Meeting Tonight!

Greetings theatre memebers, new and old!

There will be a general meeting of the West Point Community Theatre on THURSAY, MARCH 25 at 7:00 P.M. at the theatre. This was changed from the originally scheduled meeting on Wednesday, March 24 due to Lenten services. If you want to be a paid member of the theatre, the dues are $10.00 for a single membership and $15.00 for couples. These dues can be paid at the meeting or sent to Cindy Hugo at 744 East Sheridan, West Point.

First of all, congratulations to the directors, cast and crew and everyone involved in the production of OLIVER! for a spectacular show with over 1300 in attendance. Thank you!

WELCOME to all the new members of the theatre (all of you who were in, or involved in anyway with OLIVER). In case you weren't told, once in a play you are automatically included in our theatre group. We hope you will continue to be an active, intregal part of our group.

We will share with you all the exciting things we have coming up the rest of the year. We have been talking with a group of ladies that are going to be in a dance competition in Norfolk on April 17 for a promotion, "Dance for Tourism". They would like us to get involved with them for an afternoon of promoting our theatre in NE Nebraska with the dancing competition to follow in the evening. They have chosen us to work with, which is a requirement of the competition. And if they win they will donate the $400.00 prize money to the theatre. We will explain everything at the meeting and a decision must be made that night.

There will be lots to talk about so bring yourself, a friend and your ideas to help keep us on track with our lofty ideas.

SEE YOU THURSDAY NIGHT and GOD BLESS,

Jerry Hugo

West Point State Speech Qualifiers to Perform at the Theatre

The state speech qualifiers from West Point Central Catholic and West Point Public will be performing their speeches for the public on Sunday, March 14 at 2:00 p.m. at the West Point Community Theater.
