Tue, 16 Apr 2024 15:22:54 -0400

Hello everybody! President Opincar here to give you the latest for MTC. Sorry it's been a since we sent a major update email, so brace yourself!

LEGALLY BLONDE

Our production (as most of you all know) is coming up this weekend! Please come out to support our club and invite literally everybody to join you! Shows are April 19th (7 PM), April 20th (1 PM - understudies & 7 PM), and April 21st (1 PM) in the Fine Arts Recital Hall. Tickets are FREE for UMBC students and $7 for the general public and can be purchased here or at tickets.umbc.edu. Our show poster is also attached to this email. Hope to see everybody there!

Executive Board Elections

Elections to be on the 2024-25 Executive Board for MTC are happening very soon! To apply to be on the board, you should fill out this form with your official speech for the election. Any position is available to any students, except President (only open to people who have been on the board one semester before, unless no one like this applies).

The current E-Board created presentations about each role for you all, which can be found here! Feel free to send us any questions or talk to a current E-board member.

Speeches will be given to the club at the April 26th GBM, but note this is not required (but encouraged) to run for a position. Voting will run from April 26th at 1 PM till April 30th at 11:59 PM. So, be on the lookout for a voting form during that time.

On that note, we mentioned on April 12th that we may be removing the HR position from the E-board. We have opted NOT to remove this position, but rather give it more structure. All that matters, this role is open for next year!

Prom: Enchanted Forest

The theme for MTC's prom is going to be Enchanted Forest this year! Prom will take place on April 26th from 7-10 PM in the ACC Black & Gold room. Please RSVP for this event here! We will provide catering with appetizers for this event! Get hyped (and maybe ask someone out if you're feeling crazy)!

Small Fall Director Applications

Applications to direct the Small Fall musical are open and can be found here! For small fall, a director must pitch the show they wish to direct along with their desire to direct. They will present this to the NEW E-board in May. Submissions will be due by May 3rd at noon!

Sendoff (Senior Showcase)

For those who are new, MTC holds a senior showcase each year near the end of the spring semester to honor those leaving UMBC with one final performance opportunity. This year we rebranded "Senior Showcase" to be called "Sendoff Showcase" to ensure it includes transfers and those leaving the university. This year's sendoff showcase will take place on April 29th from 6-7:30 in Lower Flat Tuesdays in the Commons. For those interested in performing (it will be set up like karaoke), sign up here!
