“Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind” (30 plays in 60 minutes)
90 Neo-Futurist Plays by Greg Allen
Sketch Comedy
If you love improv… you will love this show!  Having opened in 1988 and still playing today as the longest running show in Chicago history, this “play” is an ensemble experiment in presenting “30 Plays in 60 Minutes.” Each two-minute play is performed in random order selected by the audience.  This is just one way the audience participates!   An onstage MC keeps everyone on time and keeps the show moving.  The script contains a collection of 90 comic, political, personal, and abstract plays.  We will select the 30 we want to do.  This gives us the chance to create our own evening of 30 Neo-Futurist plays. All are welcome to join the company!
Audition workshop will be Feb. 27, 2019 from 4:30-6:00 in the PH.
Auditions will be Feb. 28 and March 1 from 4:30-6:30 in the PH.  All students should be prepared to tell an appropriate joke, play improv games, and read from the script.

Contact Ms. T if you have questions.

WHO: current Athens Academy juniors
WHEN: Wednesday, March 6, 2019 from 8:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.  This date has been designated as an Upper School conference day, so students taking the test will not miss any classes.  They will simply need to schedule their conferences in the afternoon when the test is over.  Students who choose not to take the SAT at Athens Academy will only be on campus that day for conferences.
WHERE: depending on the number of students who sign up, we will dedicate a building or an area of a building for optimal testing conditions (quiet, no distractions, ample space, etc.).
COST: $80 (payable via link below).  Registration includes two test prep sessions to be scheduled prior to the test date.
REGISTRATION: students must sign up for the test no later than Tuesday, January 15, 2019.  The deadline to request accommodations (if they are not already approved) is Friday, January 11, 2019.   We cannot accept any late registrations.
UGA VETCamp applications now open!

VetCAMP (Veterinary Career Aptitude and Mentoring Program) will house up to 52 high school students on UGA’s campus for seven days. At VetCAMP, students will be involved in various activities aimed at evaluating their skills and competitiveness as future veterinarians, providing mentorship and helping them experience veterinary medicine as an exciting career path. Click here to view a video that was produced from VetCAMP 2018.

The seven-day-long on-site summer program will provide opportunities for observation of and participation in various services in the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, the Poultry Diagnostic and Research Center and the Diagnostic Laboratories, as well as a field trip to the Georgia Aquarium for a behind-the-scenes view of the facilities.

Other activities include information sessions on admission requirements, research opportunities, the curriculum, study abroad opportunities, and other undeserved specializations in the field of veterinary medicine.
