Huge congratulations to all of our amazing IE competitors!  I was blown away by the time, effort, and dedication you each gave to your pieces.  THANK YOU!  I am excited to see you all perform again at Night of Shakespeare on October 4th, and would like to work with every piece prior to that event. :)
