I am so happy to see Erica Cornejo cast in Les Sylphides. I'd been hoping to see her get more opportunities.

Also, I will be there to see Danny Tidwell in Amazed.

Alexandra, are you sure about the 8:00 curtain times? Earlier brochures (and the website) list Tues., Wed., Thurs. and Sun. as 7:30, and Opening Night as 7:00.
