To the Vidette Editor:
Recently, I read an article about local theatre groups in the Vidette's Dining Guide. I am very familiar with each of the groups mentioned, and I found the description of Heartland Theatre Company misleading. I have attended several of their shows and there is nothing "edgy" about them. But I was most upset by what wasn't in the article. My favorite local theatre group, These Aren't My Shoes Productions, was left out of the article. These Aren't My Shoes Productions is an independent, non-profit theatre group that offers free shows every summer. Last summer, an ISU theatre/directing major directed "Patient A" and "Down the Road" by Lee Blessing. These shows were performed at The Coffeehouse in downtown Normal, and featured local actors. In the summer of 2002, Shoes staged "Catholic Schoolgirls" by Casey Kurtti in a classroom in Fell Hall, and "Three Days of Rain," also at The Coffeehouse. Monday and Tuesday of ISU's finals week, they are holding auditions for "Preening" and "Reserved," two "role-reversal" one-acts that will teach theatre patrons what edgy really means.
