成人抖阴Theatre Students Receive Honors
SALISBURY, MD---The COVID-19 pandemic has brought many live performances to a halt.
While these setbacks have been felt by Salisbury University, its Music, Theatre and Dance Department not only has continued live theatre performances, but has done so in award-winning fashion.
For the fourth time, the University’s Bobbi Biron Theatre Program has been recognized by the Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival (ACTF), Region 2.
SU’s production of The Baltimore Waltz was invited to be shown as a participating production. Adjudicators lauded SU’s students and faculty for their creative process and use of cutting-edge technology to continue the performances virtually.
Partnering with Tláloc López-Watermann, founder of Light Conversations, a lighting and video design company based in New York, the production used a new software platform, StreamWeaver, which networks all of the performers systems together, solving many logistical issues. SU’s technical team was even able to control theatrical lights, which were delivered to the actors’ residences.

Senior political science major Brandon Lill of Brookeville, MD received two awards for his participation in a 10-minute play for outstanding performance and as part of the outstanding ensemble in a full-length production. An ACTF tradition, the short play was produced and shared at the festival, with Lill auditioning and being cast there. Rehearsals took place over just five days.
