Warren Acting Company Blog

Several people have asked how to use our photo galleries. The photos are stored on the Internet as part of Apple’s MobileMe service, which until this week was known as Mac.com. Most of the photos are from the Warren Acting Company, but since this is my home account, you see some other things, such as a photo gallery of my older daughter’s trip to Europe. Sometimes you also see a locked gallery or movie — those are ones I store for family members.

The photos are free to download, and you can add your own for others to see. I’ve posted better instructions on our web site about how to use the photo galleries.

Kudos to the cast of tonight’s “Wizard of Oz” for an excellent show. We’ve posted a gallery of photos online for you to see and to download — just click the icon at the top of the photo gallery that says “download” to get a zip file of all the photos. Or you can download individual photos by clicking on them and then clicking on the arrow at the bottom of the photo. You also can upload photos from the show for others to see and share — just click the icon that says “upload.” (There are two pages of photos, and the arrow to get to Page 2 is a bit small, near the top of the photo gallery.)

As usual, drop us an e-mail if you want us to remove a photo. The photos are best views in Internet Explorer 7, Firefox or Safari web browsers. We’ll add a few more after Sunday’s performance.

Update: Instructions on how to use our photo galleries are now on the Web.

We have posted some photos from Thursday’s summer camp recital – but, beware, you might get an error message, because the server where we keep the photos is being upgraded. If so, try back later. You can click on a photo to see it larger, and, as always, you can download all the photos by clicking “download” icon at the top of the photo gallery screen. You also may upload photos to share with others, by clicking the “upload” icon. The photos are viewed best using Internet Explorer 7, Firefox or Safari for either Mac or PC.

Of course, please let us know by e-mail if you want us to remove a photo from the web site. You can find the photos here, and remember, you also can see a slideshow of the photos here.

Update: Instructions on how to use our photo galleries are now available on the Web.

UPDATE! The photos should be available here.

Usually we are able to post photos the same night as one of the Warren Acting Company performances, but tonight, our photo server was down. For now, you can watch a Quicktime slideshow here of photos from tonight’s recital. (If you can’t see the slideshow, try installing Quicktime, which is free.) We should be able to post photos — that you can then download for yourself — sometime tomorrow.

We’ll see everyone again on Saturday and Sunday for “The Wizard of Oz.”

Dear parents and students,

Thank you so much for joining us this summer! We are just a few days away from opening night and all is progressing nicely. We have finished blocking and choreographing our show and all we need now is for those pieces to come together.

Dress rehearsal will take place this entire week. All campers need to plan on bringing and leaving all costumes through the week; any costumes you provided can be taken home after Sunday’s performance. If we are providing your costume, it will be there, but please bring whatever shoes and accessories you will need. If you are wearing a costume we provided, do not take it home on Sunday!

The next production on our Main Stage will be “The Rise and Fall of Little Voice” in September. Find more information on our home page.

A note to parents and our fans from Amanda Warren:

Just wanted to let you all know a great article came out on the Warren Acting Company today in the Daily Commercial and can be found online, but more importantly when you find this article, there is a link to a video featuring the entire cast in rehearsal of “Wizard of Oz. Check it out!”

Here is link to the article and video.  (Below is a screen grab from the video)

We will be raising money for the scholarship program of the Warren Acting Company on Saturday (June 14) with a car wash at the First National Bank on U.S. Highway 441 in the Wal Mart shopping center in Mount Dora. We will be out there from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Please stop by and support our program.

(Also, we are looking for students and parents who can help wash cars that day. Drop Miss Amanda an e-mail if you can make it.)

We’ve posted photos this morning from Friday night’s show of “Willy Wonka Jr.” Thanks again to the cast and our wonderful audience. You can see the photo gallery from Friday here (and, of course, Thursday’s is still available here). Please download one or all of them and add your own to share with others by clicking on the upload tool. (Here’s our standard stuff: As always, if you would like us to take down a photo, just drop an e-mail. The gallery is viewed best in Internet Explorer 7, Safari or Firefox, but you should be able to see it in earlier versions of Internet Explorer as well. And note that the online gallery is split into two pages, so be sure to look at both!)

Our show continues tonight at 7 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. at the Community Building in Mount Dora. Tickets are available at the door — $10 for adults and $5 for students.
