To those who auditioned for the Fountain City Festival Summer 2009 Show
On behalf of the board of directors of the Fountain City Festival, thank you for all the time and effort you put forth to audition for our summer 2009 show.
Sadly, I must inform you that because of the lack of numbers trying out, we were unable to cast the show. This is in no way a reflection of the talent exhibited by those who did audition—the talent in our area is always amazing. It was simply that we didn’t have enough “bodies” to fill the roles that “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” demands.
With this in mind we must cancel the summer 2009, production. Please be assured that we did not reach this conclusion without much discussion and consideration of all alternatives.
The board of directors will be meeting soon to formulate plans and explore options in regard to our next steps toward mounting a Fountain City Festival event. We’re sure there will be many FCF productions in the future and we hope you will be able to participate. We will post information on our website to keep you apprised of what’s happening.
Again, we thank you for your time, effort and interest.
Sincerely,
David W. Perkins, President
Fountain City Festival Board
