First Chair will spotlight education leaders working to create new National Standards, education resources, and communication strategies that will benefit all members. In this first highlight, meet PSIA-AASI Northwest Technical Team Head Coach Rick Lyons.
First Chair catches up with Pete Allison, Jill Chumbley, Rick Lyons and Dave Schuiling about how PSIA-AASI is drawing ever closer to strategic alignment and how all PSIA-AASI divisions have adopted a 6-point scale to measure assessment criteria. This means that instructors training for certification, resort trainers, education staff, and divisional examiners will all be working out of the same assessment “tool box”.
Unlucky episode 13. Join Emily and Chelsea on a journey through Houston to record. Starting at our place of work and traveling to the Hobby Center, all the way to Chelsea's car. When juggling several jobs and tech week, W&D has to get creative! We begin in hushed tones so that the students don't hear. Chelsea whines (no wine involved) about bad audience members- don't text and theatre! W&D heads to Diana American Grill at the Hobby Center where our wonderful waiter, Brent, finally provides wine for the rest of the episode. Recording in a restaurant was a new experience- we were far less disruptive than the couple that found out there is a no intermission in Once on this Island. After experiencing one of the best productions to come through Houston, we complete our episode in the car. W&D delves into the story about adulthood, told in a way that will reach the inner child in every stressed adult. Avenue Q was created by Jeff Whitty, Robert Lopez, Jeff Marx, and Rick Lyons.
