 REDUCE,
REUSE, RECYCLE!
We need your small appliance boxes (think toaster size)!
Why? you ask? We will open the bottom and top, creating a "tube" of

them for storage!

Week 4: January 5 - 10
A cell phone is
missing after tonight's rehearsal. This brings up a serious
trust issue that we will address as a cast. Please be aware
of the valuables brought to rehearsal; the best policy is to
leave all valuables at home.

Of
the things YES Company has taught me,
I think about the ways we're encouraged to treat others.
I was a completely different person before I came to YES.
Now that I’m here I’ve become nicer,
more organized, and a lot happier.
