Yes Shame will once again be on alternating Wednesdays this fall, starting September 5th (so start writing pieces now to get into the first show!). As usual it will be in the Little Theater at 8:00 (performers please arrive at 7:30), and I hope to see a bigger crowd and fuller orders. This thing can be cool, guys. Let's get some freshmen up in herr.

13. Lilly's Other Piece by Lilly
(A joke in binary.)

Yes Shame got a little mean last night, and that's not cool. I don't mean the content of the pieces so much as the behavior of the audience. It's fine to talk to people around you between pieces when people are getting set up, but don't be shouting stuff across the theatre, certainly don't be saying mean things to other people or calling names, and definately under no circumstances ever should you talk during a piece when the performer hasn't asked you to. It is not cute, clever, or cool, it is just rude and inappropriate. Yes Shame will be so much better if we have a good audience and good performers, so let's all just practice good theatre etiquette and be nice. Thanks, guys.
