kdaddy Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Remember back in the mid-00s when SCV announced three years of shows at once? Eureka was announced for 2007, and they announced two others that never happened. One was a "whodunit" show, I think? Does anybody have more info on those other two shows? What did they have in mind thematically? Repertoire? Why did they abandon the other two shows? I thought Eureka was great, and it placed well. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scheherazadesghost Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) There was A LOT of internal organizational change at the time. Have NO specifics, but was assistant tour manager in 08. It was.... wonky.... Perhaps that explains the shift broadly? Would love more detail from anyone who knows! Edited August 1, 2022 by scheherazadesghost sorry my memory is foggy.... I was asst tour manager in 07, not 08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Eureka, 3hree, and a third show were announced at once. I feel like the third one was a ? in that Eureka was a ! But I don't see how those two would be announced together, as I don't see an underlying theme to Eureka and 3hree. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In December 2006 they announced Eureka!, 3hree, and Clue (the whodunit show) for 2007, 2008, 2009. Who knows how much of that last one was already planned out before getting canned. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A shame those of us that marched will carry with us. Or at least, it sets apart from other alum on a pretty stark way. Note that I don't feel that way, but alum pressure can be tricky at times. Y'all want that Clue show still? Wish I'd seen the others closely enough to see if I can identify a thematic link!

They're remaking the movie, so might as well give us a drum corps show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, Eureka just seemed like great music with a cool title in the style of Songs for a Summer Night or Adventures Under a Darkened Sky. The Ravel was effing fantastic - a brilliant show. 3hree depicted Mind, Body, and Soul aspects of well-being. I feel like I remember the first movement being angst-y and busy - I think business garb on the guard. Seemed like more of a theme than Eureka. I never saw a common thread, but I don't know. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be the greatest multiple endings show since And A Shot Rang Out (poor Trixie) Edited August 1, 2022 by KVG_DC better gif with embedding. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
