Hi folks — I’m going to give you all until end of day Friday to EMAIL ME your first major review. Please send as a Microsoft Word doc (DO NOT write or paste your review into the email itself – as it’s impossible to write comments); also, be sure to double-space your review, have a unique title of your own, and put all the usual info in the upper left hand corner of the first page (as you would with any paper you turn in).
On Thursday, we’ll be going to the performance below. Since the show doesn’t start until 7:30 p.m. and runs until 10 p.m. (10 minutes after class end time), please meet me at 7:00 p.m. at 1014 South Michigan Avenue. DO NOT BE LATE or you may not be able to get into the event!
