2008 Year-In-Review

Our Productions

The 2008 theatrical year has been a busy one for us here at DTC.  Like in 2007, we had three productions in 2009 as well.  We started out in January with our most important show yet in our production of the moving adaptation of Frank Peretti's novel Tilly.  (read more...)

In March we had our second annual One-Act Competition and Dessert Auction (read more...)

Finally, in July, we had our second annual dinner theatre production of A Christmas Carol. (read more...)

2008 Year-In-Review

Our People

In addition to being a busy year with our production schedule, we have also welcomed many new people to our casts.

January's production of Tilly has a cast and crew of 22 with 5 of them in their DTC debut.  On the other side of the footlights, we also had many first-time DTC audience members come to see those performances.

Our second annual dinner theatre production in March included 23 between the cast members and directors...8 of them were new to the theatre company.

Finally, our second annual dinner theatre production of A Christmas Carol featured a total of 32 people involved in the cast, crew and orchestra.  Of those 32, thirteen of them were in their first production with Destination Theatre Company.

2009 Season is in the Final Planning Stages

This year looks to be another great one.  We start off the year in March with our third annual One-Act Competition and Dessert Auction.  This year, for the first time, we will also have a new play category as part of our new play contest.  We have had 7 short plays submitted for use in our One-Act Competition this year.  The plays were written by 6 different playwrights with very different themes and stories.  Full information will be online by the end of January and distributed in the February Newsletter but mark your calendars now for the auditions on February 16th and 19th and the performance on March 27th, 2009.  Both the auditions and the performance will be at West County Assembly of God in Chesterfield.

We also have chosen our production for our third annual Dinner Theatre Production.  This year's Mainstage production is our fifth summer production and our 10th production overall.  Our production this summer will be J.B. A Play in Verse by Archibald MacLeish.  In this Pulitzer Prize-winning poetic drama, Archibald MacLeish has fashioned a tense and powerful retelling of the Biblical story of Job.
