6/11/08 07:15 pm - lunar_rainbows - Website Hello all,So we have been working on the website this summer to help establish better communication for next year, and even though it is not complete yet you all should go check it out, and it will be continually updated this summer. It iswww.olions.orgAlso, on the Teching page there is all the information and application for those who might be interested in doing the Technical Sponsorship for next year. So if you know of anyone who is interested you can direct them to the site.
5/27/08 07:46 am - lunar_rainbows - End of the year So we have a new board, and I'm moving on, so I'll announce the new board and I need to pass this group onto somebody who's still in Olions to keep it updated.New board = Anna H.Ellen K.Natasha R. Junior Board = Amanda J.Leave a comment if you're interested in modding this group.
1/16/08 02:02 pm - lunar_rainbows - Topper Revue 07-08 Well TR is all up and running. Emcees:Calen McKenzieNathan CournoyerRyan GallenKelly GreeffElise GalbertAlia GeorgeThe acts are very good this year and the theme of TR is Rock Band.I'll post the show dates. I don't know them right off the top of my head.-Brianna
11/26/07 09:55 pm - lunar_rainbows - One Acts The One Acts are in full swing!We open next friday and it's going to be AMAZING! Andrea will open with " 'dentity Crisis" It's about a girl who tried to kill herself because of her crazy family that keeps changing identities, and she tried to run away, but ends up back with them. It's nuts with the family and the craziness, but it's also hillarious. I will then change the mood up a little with a serious one act written by our own Vickie W. titled "Fire and Darkness". This is about a couple that takes twists and turns in the city life. The girl with a wealthy past, meets a boy who lost all his money to a pick pocketing bum. He's already taken, by a controlling witch, and his best friend balances his life until the girl of his dreams comes along. Erin will finish off the night with a turn back for the hillarious. "The Actor's Nightmare" is just what it is, an actor on stage. He doesn't know what the play is, any of the lines, and it keeps switching on him, just like in an actor's worst nightmare. Come watch these awesome one acts and help us determine which one of us will go to festival this year. Peace!Bri
11/3/07 11:01 pm - lunar_rainbows - Change of scene. So the fall play ended last night. It was fun and a little bitter sweet. So, the One Acts are next. If you're interested, or know somebody who's interested, come audition in Topper Theatre Tuesday and Wednesday this week! It'll be a blast. These are the one acts:Erin M. is directing "Naomi in the Living Room"Andrea S. is directing "'dentity Crisis"I (Brianna P.) am directing "Fire and Darkness" written by Vickie W.If you're not auditioning, please come see the performances. It'll be a blast. I'll post the dates soon.Peace,Bri

I'm pretty sure the dates are set, I just can't remember them right now. Let your friends, parents, relatives, anybody know about this. We also may be doing a garage sale with some of the stuff.

8/25/06 05:05 pm - lunar_rainbows - Updates Hey everybody! So, I'm the new mod, thanks to dancing_author and eriolgal. They were great and I don't know how I'll follow in their footsteps.Anyway, as the mod changed, so did a few other things. The group has a new look and an icon. All members can still post, of course. Only appearances changed.I also hope to keep everybody up to date with the who's who and the what's what with the Olions club. This also includes dates and prices (if they change) for those of you who have moved away or just don't go to the school anymore.And that's that. I hope you enjoy the new look.- Brianna P.EDIT: Okay, I noticed there are some problems with what I've done, so I'm going to change a few things.EDIT #2: It's fixed. I hope it works on your computer. If it doesn't, then I'll change it again.
5/31/06 08:00 pm - dancing_author - Liven up people! Okay folks. As both eriolgal and myself are heading off to college in the fall, I don't feel it is fair for us to keep modship over you. We need someone who is currently in Olions to take over the community and do simple stuff (like keep out spammers/trolls).If anybody wants to do this please comment and let me know!~KendraALSO: Congratulations to the 2006-2007 board! Jenna, Bryant, Beth, Becca, and junior board member Andrea! Keep all of us graduates informed as to what is going on ;)

| | 3/12/06 07:19 pm - rustysmurf - In need of some help As those who know me already know, I'm no longer living in Los Alamos and thus no longer a part of Olions. However, I still value you guys' opinions and am now requesting your assistance.I will most likely be directing a one-act play later this year, but I have no idea what I should do. I'm really pretty lost here as I can't name any one acts off the top of my head except Variations on the Death of Trotsky and I've never even seen that. So really any suggestions are welcome. Any help with this at all would really be greatly appreciated. | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

In retaliation she is giving us until wednesday to turn in the "culprit" before Olions ends. I just thought I would let those of you weren't at the meeting yesterday know about it. ~Kendra

We want stories about your experiences so far in high school, both good and bad, excellent and shitty. Tell us about the people you hate and why, and who you look up to and admire and why. Also any stories about people you had judged and then you found out something about them that made you change your mind completely. You don't have to use any names if you don't want (but please give person one and two instead of lots of he's so we don't get confused). Please tell people that don't read this or post here as well, as we want as much input as possible!

2/9/05 02:26 pm - amy_ai Hey kids! Amy your friendly yearbook layout... er... maker here. You know me. I'm the girl with the funky bangs and the bright green poofy jacket. I'm doing the layout for TR, and I have a couple questions. 1. I'd like to make sure of the spelling... it IS Topper REVUE, right? I'm pretty much absolutely sure of it, but I want to be positively absolutely sure. And I forgot to look at my program. If none of you see this before 5:30 today (Wednesday), don't bother commenting, cause I'll go home and look. 2. I know all of you kids are "special friends" with your camera, digital or otherwise. If you have any SUPER COOL pictures, especially of the techs backstage, actual performances (from the audience or from backstage), or the emcees in their tuxes, I'd love to see them... you can email me at laliria@gmail.com. ANY help you guys have is tons appreciated. And you would be credited for your amazing photo taking skillz. ^.~3. Any cool quotes, memories, etc etc that would be cool in the yearbook? You can send those to me too. ALSO. If any of you who go to LAHS and participated in TR would like to be featured in the yearbook, just post a comment answering this question: "How do you make it through hours and hours of tough rehearsals?" AND make sure that I'll be able to get a picture of you conceivably soon (like end of this week at the latest)... and yes, I'd take the picture. This might be before or after school or at lunch where we could meet somewhere and have a glamourous photoshoot.Once again, my email is laliria@gmail.com. Hope some of you are willing to help. =)

12/9/04 07:27 pm - dancing_author Hey all Olions for those of you who don't know or couldn't guess i am Kendra Hartwell. My current purpose in life is to inform you of a totally awesome theatre camp that is happening in London this summer. I would really like to go, but according to my parents i am not allowed to go to London alone for a week. I was hoping that one of you would like to come with me. This is not just an acting camp, it is a combination of tech and acting so don't feel like one aspect of theatre is being left out. If anybody would like to go please talk to me at school or comment on my lj. thanks
