Call for Letters: The UBC Theatre program has set
up a scene shop and small rehearsal rooms at the Great Northern Way Campus. The GNWC scene
shop and small rehearsal rooms have been functioning very successfully for three years,
serving the Vancouver cultural community and students at the GNWC partner schools.
However, the GNW Campus administration has recently had to close the Black Box Studio
space to anything except high-revenue film rentals, and there's a possibility that the
GNWC shop and small rehearsal rooms may no longer be funded by UBC after Dec. 31 2007.

Hussy Productions' The Summer Of My Amazing Luck, and Morgan Brayton's one-woman
show, Girls Like Me.
Summer On The Waterfront is designed to increase access and cultural activity during

Granville Island. Deadline for project proposals is January 31st, 2007.
