Transformation

The theatre is a place of transformation.  That's a pretty general statement, but it's an appropriate one, as it is just one of many words you could use to describe Still Point right now.  The Company has been transforming over the last 18 years from a simple idea about a play and strong desire to tell a story, to multiple programs, touring shows and a small collective of people eager to continue spreading the seed that Lisa Wagner-Carollo planted so many years ago.  With Dena Hawes stepping in as our new Executive Director, it was time for Lisa to "send her baby off to college," and a new website is just one of many things we are in the process of transforming.  We've spent many, many hours working with our amazing designer, Noah, in Washington D.C. to revamp the site in order to show you how much Still Point has grown up in the last few years.  We've updated and added some pretty cool new things for you to check out- links to our Facebook and Twitter, staff bios, event schedules, this way neat blog that I'm hoping to update weekly, and best of all THE ABILITY TO GIVE US YOUR MONEY ELECTRONICALLY!!  Well, that's always been a feature, but I just wanted to take the opportunity to point out its importance... So, please poke (or click) around and take the time to get to know our new site.  We have a lot of work to do- gathering photos and getting permission to use them has a been quite a task, but in the end will be worth it.  We want you to be able to see what we're doing and who we're working with, and hopefully be able to enjoy videos and photos of the people in our programs so you can see how our work is affecting people.  And please, don't be shy around that "donate" button. Technology is certainly advancing, but we haven't found a way to use it to hypnotize anyone yet.
