arabica Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 With auditions around the corner and the dust settling on recent leadership/staff shakeups, figured it was time to get a new Cadets 2023 topic going since the last one went off the rails. 2023 Staff: https://cadets.org/staff 2023 Tour: https://cadets.org/2023-cadets-tour-announced 2023 Program: TBD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommeee Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) I’m actually glad there was no Cadets thread for a while. Taking some time to let emotions calm down, and considering all aspects of where things are, I’m looking forward to see where this goes. Especially anxious to find out about the 2023 program! There are quite a few positives, for sure. Edited November 27, 2022 by Tommeee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
