It's so cool that we're the oldest program like this in the country, and the Centennial celebration was really fun. It was also really cool to see how the decorations in the lobby looked at night, under all of the lights. It's great to see how many people support out program and make contributions to the arts. The party, and the press release, make me feel really great about being a member of this community, and I'm really glad I could celebrate it's 100th year (and wear a kilt). I can't wait to see what the 200th anniversary party will be like.

It's super exciting to be working on run crew for the centennial musical. I love being around all the hype about the show and the celebration. The performance went pretty well last night and the party afterwards was fun. It was nice to see everyone all dressed up and enjoying themselves. It feels good to be a part of something so special.

(Also, Thomas, do you plan on haunting Purnell after death?)
