                Carpenter Square Theatre presents the William Inge play, Picnic. The play runs through April 14. Picnic is the winner of the 1953 Pulitzer Prize. It is an American classic set in a small Kansas town. A hunky drifter comes to town and is a catalyst for change in the seemingly humdrum lives of the ladies in a neighborhood boarding house. Classen’s own Michel Payne directs, Terry Veal stars, and features sophomore Alix Golden. Carpenter Square Theatre is located inside the STAGE CENTER performing arts facility at 400 West Sheridan in downtown Oklahoma City .

3rd Notice re: OU Big Event at CSAS on Saturday -  Volunteers Still Needed to Help OU Volunteers Help Us on  & before the 14th… CSAS to get rid of junk with the Aid of Neighbors’ Big Trash Day (more volunteers, please.)
 
Thanks to all who have already responded to the announcement of the forthcoming OU Big Event @ CSAS on April 14th – Saturday.
 
What is the Big Event?  See 4/2/07  Classen News.  In addition to painting 6 classrooms (Ms. Kingsolver’s room looks like it’ll get  enough parent volunteers that we’ll be able to add Mr. Brian Horn’s room, A104, for the OU volunteers to paint), the OU volunteers will also do some landscaping. 
 
CSAS neighbors, the Neighbors family, have generously agreed to receive the junked refrigerator and any other big trash that will fit between the sidewalk and their driveway, for neighborhood Big Trash Day on Monday the 16th.  Volunteers needed to help haul the fridge and junk around the corner to their yard. Extra pickup truck means more junk can be hauled for disposal.  What time?  Depends when volunteers can come.   (Sooners arrive at about 10:30 a.m. – all must be quiet for ACT until noon or 12:30)
 
The Big Event will be staged through the back entrance at C-Hall, north of the Gym.  Get location of assignments in cafeteria on Sat.
 
Other Volunteer needs:
 
Thursday: scrape & fill holes in Harding, T. Brown, Kingsolver after school til 5:30.  Call 843-1122 or email bdew@repairman.com.
 
Friday:   teachers & student helpers will move the furniture and stuff away from the walls.  After school on Friday the 13th, as long as we can stand it, volunteers are needed to prep walls & trim and cover the white boards, blackboards and bulletin boards and cupboards attached to the walls with newspaper to prevent roller splatters.  Wall prep continues with scraping, tape & glue removal, scraping, hole-patching, scraping, dirt-offwashing,  and scraping, scraping, scraping & sweeping scraping leavings.  Bring scrapers if you’ve got ‘em.  Pleeeze.  Place ladders (and scaffolding.)  Call or email.
 
Saturday:  No noise before 12:30 due to ACT.  Thus ladders need to have already placed on Friday.  Volunteer check in and assignments in cafeteria no earlier than 8 a.m.  Volunteers please bring own brushes/rollers.  Paint is being donated.   Sooners arrive at about 10:30 a.m. through CHall exterior entry. Kingsolver cannot be painted til 12:30 p.m.  Please call or email ASAP to RSVP
 
Kids who will scrape  & tape are welcome on Thursday and Friday.  Adults?  Absolutely.  Many on Friday, some on Thursday, too.  On Saturday, kids middle school age or younger must be accompanied by a responsible adult.  Saturday painters and junk-haulers needed.
Bring own brushes and rollers.
 
Please email bdew@repairman.com if you are interested in helping our kids’ school for OU Big Event.  Or call Barbara Rupert @843-1122.  ASAP.  Thank you!
