Spring Season, Spring Break
March 23rd, 2013
Greetings!

I want wish everyone in the LACHSA community a well-deserved Spring Break. With the success of numerous performances, culminating academic work, and a transition to a new home, our artist-scholars have most definitely earned it.

Our Spring Season kicked off last weekend with the rousing and inventive Spring dance show, The Waters of March at the Nate Holden; Sweeny Todd came to the Alex Theatre in bloody, brooding fashion courtesy of our First Circle Opera Project; and our third year theatre students realized the insightful and reflective Laramie Project: Ten Years Later.

 

In our academic program, seniors completed their in-depth review of a settled Supreme Court case with an ambitious ten-page term paper, and a record number of our students competed in the Los Angeles County Science Fair.

 

 

Our artist-scholars accomplished all of this amidst a massive relocation. I want to thank everyone--faculty, staff, students, and families--for their amazing flexibility and support during our move. Our new home is just like any new home. The walls seems a bit bare and we will try a few configurations and purchases with the furniture to get things just right; it even smells new! Our students, faculty, and staff have only begun to live in the space.

 

The crowing feature of our new home is our theatre, forever known as Caroline's L.O.F.T. named after LACHSA founder and supporter Caroline Ahmanson. Spring break will allow the time to finish the installation of the remaining Items in anticipation of our first LACHSA event later this Spring.

I know this time away from LACHSA will be for our students an opportunity to visit colleges, undertake personal projects, shoot film submissions for our upcoming Moondance Film Festival, and hopefully enjoy additional sleep. To our amazing students I want you to enjoy, play, and rejuvenate.

 

 

Enjoy Spring Break!

Sincerely,
