We would be remiss if we didn't start out this month's newsletter by thanking everyone who came out and experienced ARTC this past season. We just wrapped up 2011-2012 and celebrated a lot of firsts. Our first back-to-back sellout crowds at the Academy Theatre, our first art show, our first live streaming broadcasts, and the first time many of you heard of us and the magic of radio.

There might be doubt about trees in forests, but I can tell you that if nobody is there to hear an audio dramatist, he might as well not even exist. So thank you all who came out and shared the power of the imagination with us!

Do you like that illustration for The Time Machine? Of course you do. Did you like the one we had a few months ago for The Dancer in the Dark? I bet you did. Well, both of them were done by local artist Lindsay Archer and we're pleased to announce that we'll be having an exhibition of her work alongside our performance of The Time Machine in March, along with an up-and-coming local artist, Jen Richards!

Radio theatre lives in sound, but it can't live in sound alone. Come explore the visual side of our medium!

The big news this month is obviously our upcoming performance at the Academy Theatre of Kelley S. Ceccato's The Horseman of the Hollow.

This is being done in conjunction with the Post-Meridian Radio Players nationwide event, Sleepy Hollow: The Ride Across America. Along with radio theatres in Oklahoma and Washington, ARTC will be presenting its own unique take on the Washington Irving classic by having the famous adversary of Ichabod Crane travel from coast to coast, his story advancing in time at each stop along the way until, with his arrival in Seattle, he reaches modern day.

ARTC is proud to participate in this event highlighting the fact that audio drama is still alive and well in America and practiced by groups in all parts of the country.

The performance will be made available on a compilation CD later, but why wait? Catch it live! Buy your tickets here ($10 in advance, $15 at the door) or, if you don't live near the Atlanta area, catch the live streaming broadcast on Aberrant Radio!

Kickoff parties: Saturday, October 29 - 6:00pm Sunday, October 30 - 12:30pm Academy Theatre Free!

Calling all Wrimos! If you aren't familiar with National Novel Writing Month, maybe you should be. And one great way to familiarize yourself with the madness that is NaNoWriMo is to come out to the kickoff party for this year's event! There will be raffles and prizes and people talking about writing a novel in the month of November, some of whom will have the whole thing plotted out and others who will be going by the seat of their pants.

Plus, as a Partner in Imagination, we'll be donating 25% of ticket sales to this effort that promotes literacy and encourages writing. ARTC wouldn't be much without writing, so we encourage it whenever possible.
