From our
past partner TB/Chicago: This is a final
follow up to the activity surrounding
Theatre Building Chicago, sent to us by Joan
Mazzonelli, past CEO of the Theatre and
friend. Here is a link to John Sparks’
letter to the editor, which was published in
Time Out Chicago’s blog:
We understand
that the Theatre Building Chicago non-profit
has a power point summary strategy to
produce new musicals in Chicago under a new
as-yet-unknown name – which is what they
announced publicly in March. The Sketch Fest
folks will operate the facility also under a
new yet-to-be announced name. The folks
behind the private investment group that
bought the building are still unknown.
According to the Attorney General, the
Theatre Building board member had affidavits
noting that they were not individually
benefiting from the sale. We have heard that
the property sale is to close officially on
May 19. The new folks from Sketch Fest have
been shadowing the staff for the last week. The
Theatre Building Chicago staff, however,
have not yet received any information about
their status – no severance offer or offer
of a job with the new facility operators.
They’ve been waiting to hear something
definitive since March 15 and now expect to
be dismissed soon - ironic treatment from an
organization that previously launched
careers. More positively John Sparks new
program, Midwest New Musicals, has been
growing strong on the North Shore under the
umbrella of Light Opera Works. The sessions
have been going since January, recruitment
for a new bath of writers is underway for
September. They’ve been meeting with
various folks on the North Shore to
establish some partnerships – Northwestern
University and other potential community and
art centers. John is planning a reading
series beginning in the fall. So come next
week, raise a toast to the “amazing grace”
of the last 33-years of Theatre Building
Chicago and expect to hear some good news
soon from the new Midwest New Musicals.

World Theatre Day - 27 March 2010
message by Dame Judi Dench:
"World Theatre Day is an opportunity
to celebrate Theatre in all its myriad
forms. Theatre is a source of entertainment and
inspiration and has the ability to unify the many
diverse cultures and peoples that exist throughout
the world. But theatre is more than that and also
provides opportunities to educate and inform.
Theatre is performed throughout the
world and not always in a traditional theatre
setting. Performances can occur in a small village
in Africa, next to a mountain in Armenia, on a tiny
island in the Pacific. All it needs is a space and
an audience. Theatre has the ability to make us
smile, to make us cry, but should also make us think
and reflect.
Theatre comes about through team
work. Actors are the people who are seen, but there
is an amazing set of people who are not seen. They
are equally as important as the actors and their
differing and specialist skills make it possible for
a production to take place. They too must share in
any triumphs and successes that may hopefully occur.
March 27 is always the official World
Theatre Day. In many ways every day should be
considered a theatre day, as we have a
responsibility to continue the tradition to
entertain, to educate and to enlighten our
audiences, without whom we couldn’t exist."

Sustainability project
- MThI
is focusing its future activity on
sustainable events. Sustainability will became a
regular approach for our projects. For this reason
we are developing attitudes and strategies about
what would make an event more sustainable. We think
all event planners should consider sustainability
and information on how to do it very important and
for this reason we have passed the Sustainable
Green Events Guide of Seventeen Events (SGEG).
If you are an event organiser who is actively
interested in making your events more sustainable,
we hope this guide can help you too.
Go to the SGEG - a free guide gently allowed by
Seventeen Events (U.K.)
