Auditorium upgrades promise to inspire arts appreciation
Last month, drama students at Sam Barlow High School finished their production of “Lend Me A Tenor.” The play, a comedy of mistaken identities set in a 1930’s opera house, is the final performance of the year for Barlow High School’s drama department.
It’s also the final performance for Barlow’s auditorium before major renovations begin. Starting this summer, Barlow’s auditorium will undergo a substantial overhaul that will replace sound equipment, lighting equipment, and build much larger dressing rooms. The renovated space won’t be open until 2019, but the renovations will also provide Barlow with a new black box theater. This flexible performance space will be used as the Barlow drama classroom and for smaller student performances.
“It’s going to be really flexible,” explained Jeff Schroeder, Barlow’s theater director. “We can arrange seating and the stage wherever we want.”
Schroeder spoke fondly of his students’ recent performance of “Steel Magnolias,” noting that, in the future, similar productions would fit nicely in the forthcoming black box performing space.

Is My Old Sunscreen Still Good?
Most sunscreens will remain as good as new for up to three years. Many include an expiration date - if yours doesn't , write the date of your purchase on the bottle and throw it out after three years. (But you will have used it up long before then, right?)
