has been selected for the Monthly Volunteer Recognition
Award for June 2010 for his work in the Theatre Arts Program where he
has been a volunteer since 1979. John also worked on the lighting
for the Hayward Little Theatre's dedication in November 1978, which also
involved unpacking, assembling, and hanging the lighting instruments. He
was the Theatre's first light board operator and stage managed the opening
production of THE KING & I in January of 1979. John has volunteered
his time on 49 productions and has worked as the production photographer
for 38 plays and musicals, including the Douglas Morrisson Theatre's
most recent production of I LOVE A PIANO.
When the Theatre created a website, John took on the challenge of developing
an archive of all the plays, musicals, concerts, and events in the Theatre's
history. The archives include the names of everyone who has ever
worked at the Theatre, all the productions, and downloadable photos from
almost every production presented on the Douglas Morrisson Theatre's
stage. John continues to maintain, update and improve the archive
site and the large photo-boards that hang in the Theatre auditorium and
backstage.
He is a valuable member of the Theatre's production team and is liked
and respected by everyone who works with him.
John will be eligible for the Volunteer of the Year Award for 2010,
which will be announced in January of 2011. |
