Our Crowdfunding Groups
Hello!
Our show has ended, our story has been told, and now this incredible journey can come to a close. All of us on the team would like to send out a big thank you to each and every one that donated, supported, and cheered us on. Without you this wouldn’t have been possible.
We made people smile, laugh, and even cry. It makes my heart very happy knowing that we were able to take people to another world and experience a story unlike any other, and knowing that you were able to be a part of that process has it overflowing with joy.
Until next time,
Sayons Villains!

This past week, our directors and choreographers were busy behind the desk listening and watching as an amazing group of students gave it their all in auditioning for this show. Each and every person that was seen showed an incredible amount of talent, dedication, and love for what they do. The casting decisions were not easy.

Our deadline has been extended! Be sure to tell all your friends and colleagues about this project, the more people that know about it, the closer we are to having everything we need to make this show happen!
As the semester moves forward, so do our designs! Everyday, the team has been working diligently to design this show and take it off the page and into reality. Ideas are being drafted, adjusted and even cut (though if something gets cut, there's usually 10 more to take it's place.)
Not only that, we're also preparing for auditions! Pretty soon, we'll have actual people to bring these amazing characters to life!
The Daily Texan has written an amazing article about the project, you can check it out here

Take a look at a few early drafts from our Projection Designer, Taylor Travis. They're inspired by the stained glass windows in the Notre-Dame de Paris! How cool is that?
Productions meetings are in full swing!
After a summer of planning and preliminaries, the production team is back in the design room to iron out all the details! Pretty soon, we'll have fully fleshed out concepts and will begin to bring them off the page and into the real world.
We also have a Facebook Page for our show. Go and give it a "like" to stay in the loop with everything that we're up to!
