10A COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL FEBRUARY 7, 2018 NOISES OFF DEBUTS AT COTTAGE THEATRE seeing the trouble that actors have in rehearsals and funny stuff and then they get on each other’s nerves later on in the play and the actors relation- ships start deteriorating backstage and on stage and so more crazy stuff happens because of all that.” While the actors are a key part of everything, the real key to the whole production is the set. The set is based around a pair of staircases and more importantly seven different doors that are con- stantly being opened and closed. “The set and the timing, those are the two things that this play is all about. Getting everything go- ing so that it fl ows,” said Rust. In the fi rst and third set the audience is seeing what is happening in the play but in the second set the viewer is transported backstage where they see the cast arguing about in a silent fashion while the play is taking place. For this piece, the set is changed between acts. In other stages, the house revolves around to show that the audience is now on the other side but at the Cottage Grove Theatre the stage crew quickly changes doors and move things around between acts. “One of the hardest parts about this show really is the set. Figuring out how you’re going to do this set in your space,” said Rust. Once the set was fi gured out, the cast then had to get used to going in the correct door and mak- ing sure they moved at the right time all while playing multiple characters. “We’re in tune with each other and we trust each other and it’s such a show about trust. The amount of falling and slapping and sardines fall- ing, it’s a madhouse,” said Sophie Blades who plays the characters of Flavia and Belinda. Noises Off runs from Thursday-Sunday until February 18. By Zach Silva zsilva@cgsentinel.com W ith doors opening and closing at a mo- ment’s notice, sardines fl ying through the air and a nearly silent act that was still chalk- full of storylines, Cottage Grove Theatre began their production of the comedy "Noises Off!" which opened last Friday. The play that is directed by Tony Rust is from the 1982 British play of the same name is de- scribed as a “British sex-farce.” “It means they’re all running around and drop- ping trousers and a girl in her underwear but it’s all polite,” said Rust. The play takes place when a set of actors is pre- paring for their own play which is about to de- but. In the fi rst act the audience gets to see the fi nal moments of the cast preparing for the play, in the second act the audience sees backstage dra- ma during one of the productions and in the third and fi nal act the viewer gets to see the play as it fi nishes up on tour. “The play within the play is written (poorly) on purpose which is to say it’s not a great play but it’s funny and just kind of stupid and slamming and running around and crazy stuff,” said Rust. “And they’re having trouble with it in the re- hearsal and that’s kind of fun because you’re School board round-up By Zach Silva cmay@cgsentinel.com Pool Update In the coming weeks, the school district will receive the fi - nal cost estimate of how much the pool upgrades will cost at Cottage Grove’s Warren H. Daughtery Aquatic Center. The district will receive the schematic designs and will then get to the construction documents all with the goal of beginning construction in Sep- tember. The pool is going through ren- ovations with updates to be to the pool, the locker rooms and with future renovations in mind. The budget for the process is $5.1 mil- lion which comes from a bond. Harrison Moving Along With 90-100 subcontractors on site each day, the new Harri- son Elementary School is begin- ning to take shape. At Monday’s school board meeting, Matt Al- len, who is in charge of SLSD’s maintenance, noted that last week it appeared that the school was three weeks behind schedule and now it is just one week behind. What has aided the progress is the nice weather that the area has had. If individuals from the public are interested in a tour call the South Lane School District offi ce at 541-942-3381. Dorena picking up STEAM Dorena School’s principal Lin- da Folkman how the school is using STEAM to guide some of their work. STEAM is a program that uses science, technology, en- gineering, art and math to guide what students are learning. In this program, teachers are taking on two lessons from different areas of STEAM and designing two one-hour units around them. These lessons are then taught to a mixed group of 20 students (K-3 and 4-8). Each month the students will rotate around the different lessons on what the school is call- ing STEAM Fridays. New Leadership The meeting marked the fi rst with Kyle Tucker as acting superinten- dent, replacing Krista Parent.
