Two MAT Award Wins for NFDC!

Thomas — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 18:31:23 +0000

The MAT Awards Ceremony for the 2009 season was held last night at the newly restored Strand Theater in Marietta. North Fulton Drama Club was honored with seven nominations across five categories. To make the evening brighter, NFDC’s Qate Bean and Jim Dailey each won for their respective roles in Romeo and Juliet (Fall 2008).

Jim Dailey won Best Minor Supporting Actor for his portrayal of Father Capulet. (Shown here with MAT Award nominee Julie Gibbs as Juliet.)

Qate Bean won Best Major Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Mercutio. (Shown here with Jerry Rickman as Benvolio and Sean Anderson as Romeo.)

NFDC’s submission for the 2010 Season is Macbeth, closing this weekend.

Macbeth Matinee Today at 3pm!

Thomas — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 13:12:30 +0000

It looks like the weather will be very good to us today. If you’re looking for something to do out in the mid-day sun — or if you were rained out of an earlier show — please join us for our only Matinee performance of Macbeth.

The Matinee starts at 3pm.* Patrons are welcome to assemble on the lawn as early as 2pm.

If you have any questions about the show, feel free to give us a call (678-561-BARD).

* – There are other online and in-print sources that listed our Matinee time as 4pm, but 3pm is the correct time.

Saturday Show 9/26 – Cancelled

Thomas — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 23:42:09 +0000

We regret that weather conditions have forced us to cancel our show tonight. We are in the process of contacting patrons with table reservations. The outlook is improved for tomorrow, so the matinee at 3pm is still going on as scheduled until further notice.

Thank you for your support and we hope to see you another evening.

NOTE:
NFDC is an all-volunteer effort and as such, none of the roles or positions are paid. Any donations received over the course of one show will fund our efforts for the next. We understand that lack of a stipend can be a dealbreaker when considering us for auditions, but we hope that the prospect of collaborating on a show of quality will allow you to consider us, if not for our next endeavor, then possibly for one of our future shows.
