I never imagined this would reach so many people when I first wrote it. The silence from the administration is telling but your collective commitment makes it impossible for them to look away.

These people are the heart and soul of the theatre department. York is making a huge mistake letting them go.

Ridiculous. How are students supposed to learn without the support of the people who actually run the place?? Bring them back!

John is the best. He helped me so much with my set designs. You guys are losing the best staff you have.

SHIRLEY IS THE BEST. She made it possible for us to even get our props ready for shows. This is so unfair to her and the other staff.
