Isn't it a bit late to recruit almost the whole group of production team, starting to work from around July 9, just right now? It would be very nervous for Production Management.

I am the PM, and yes it is stressful, but you sometimes try and help friends make there dreams come true. And as a former employee of TBTS, I want to see the place produce theatre again. Many former staff are stepping up to help make it happen. With many theatre's closing and going out of business, it feels good to try and help get one restarted. More jobs for techs and actors cannot be a bad thing, even at the last minute. Resumes are coming in, so somebody needs work, and maybe they can fit in to our little season.

(and thanks to who ever posted this originally, getting the word out helps)
