Update Haiku

So, I promise we’ve done a few shows since the last blog update.  Let it suffice to say it’s been a wild summer and fall in Spartanburg Little Theatre and Spartanburg Youth Theatre-Land.  Very talented and dedicated staff members have left to explore new frontiers and new very talented and dedicated staff members have already joined the SLT/SYT family and will soon undoubtedly make their mark on an organization that is (this year) 65 years strong.

So right smack dab in the middle of our 65 year anniversary season, I thought I’d give you a quick update on what we’ve been doing since last ….ahem…June.  And in the interest of brevity (not usually one of my strong suits), I thought we could do this in the form of Haiku.  As you will see, my Haiku skills are severely lacking:
