Brooke Olaivar, the director of The Arts at Lincoln Trail College’s production of The One-Act Play That Goes Wrong, has announced the cast for the show.  

Olney Central College Director of Choral Activities Dr. Andrew Pittman is excited to announce that the OCC Community Choir will start its 12th season with rehearsals at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 23. The first rehearsal will be very informal: some light singing, dates and registration, followed quickly by a pizza dinner. After a fantastic performance of the Many Moods of Christmas last year with full orchestra at Richland County High School, the OCC Community Choir will return to its own charming little theater with some lighter fare of Holiday Pop tunes and traditional favorites.

Lincoln Trail College will hold auditions on August 15 and 16 for its Fall production of The One-Act Play That Goes Wrong.

The Fall Semester at Lincoln Trail College begins on August 18 and the College will help new students prepare for college at New Student Orientation on August 17.  “We’re giving students some flexibility with orientation this year,” said Director of Marketing Chris Forde. “Instead of having one session, we’re offering students a choice of three different times.”

High school students taking dual credit classes at Lincoln Trail College will get the chance to prepare with LTC’s Dual Credit Orientation on August 2 at 6 p.m. “Dual Credit Orientation is an introduction to what college classes are like,” says LTC Director of Instructional Services Erin Volk. “College classes are a change for high school students, and we want them to be prepared so they can be successful.”
