Creativity Rules!

Group E: What's A Little Death - Good acting and singing especially the full figured red head (great voice). It was an hour long and would have been better if half the length as it should have been.
Develop: Interesting piece on a bit of insanity. Good acting but just a little over the top in places.
Paint it Blue: Weird Modern Dance but cudos to them for dancing for so long. The documentary behind them was interesting.
Girl in a Corset - The best of the night! If you don't like seeing a woman's body then this isn't for you but it is worth seeing and entertaining. Cudos to Kit from Burlesque U.

Nice venue with comfortable chairs!

About Source:

A veritable epicenter of talented artists and performing arts groups, Source seeks to stimulate, enlighten and engage performing arts audiences.

Source is a project of the Cultural Development Corporation (CuDC). CuDC creates opportunities for artists and arts organizations that stimulate economic development and improve the quality of life.

About Source Theatre:

CuDC purchased Source in October 2006 with the vision of redeveloping the theatre's multi-use performing arts space. Source's 150-seat black box is vital to the area's small and medium-sized arts organizations because the space is intimate, flexible and affordable. Following an extensive renovation in 2008, Source also provides a classroom, rehearsal room and administrative space to area performing arts groups and resident companies.
