Carolina's staff has been updated. Rick Subel and Tony Lemon are no longer listed in the creative team.

kdaddy Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 It's weird that the artistic director/program coordinator would change, but all other designers remain the same. Wouldn't the theory be for the "idea guy" to bring aboard their own people? I mentioned before that Subel's shows were never my cup of tea, but it's interesting that the most comprehensive design was his last imo (to whatever extent it was *his* design). I thought they skated by on talent for a couple of his shows with weak concepts (e.g., 2017, 2019), but I wouldn't say that about 2023. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dpsouthern81 Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Joe Roach named Executive Director at Crown. As Executive Director, Roach will lead Carolina Crown’s business and program development. He will continue to head the drum corps program as Corps Director.  https://www.carolinacrown.org/news/joe-roach-appointed-executive-director 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadet Guardy Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Cadets taking Subel would be epic and IMO, allow them to be competetive with the top 4 - one can hope! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabMaster Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 I thought someone wrote Tony Lymon was no longer at CC, but he is still shown on the site. Â Did he not go to BK? Â And Mike Jackson is the perc arranger and choreographer. Â Talented team there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Tony Lymon is still on the Crown website  tonight as still being on the Crown  DesignTeam , but that’s not accurate as far as I know  . He officially resigned his position a few weeks ago , and has been hired by the Blue Knights as Artistic Director there a few days ago .  Edited September 29, 2023 by Boss Anova Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was hired earlier this year ( Feb) as CEO at Carolina Crown . Looks like now Joe Roach will wear 2 hats as Corps Director and take over the responsibility for Business and Programs Development at Crown that Williams was hired 8 months ago to do as one of his responsibilities .  Williams is the Executive Producer of NightBeat , one of the most successful of the DCI shows each season .  Edited September 29, 2023 by Boss Anova Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will likely all get sorted out there at Crown , but there are some rather unexpected and surprising staff and mgt movements there after their season . On field they had a good season , but now it seems things are a bit unsettled there at the moment . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
