Playwright participates in new series
BY HEATHER FIORE
The Lawrence Sun
On Sept. 4, a new series that fo-
cuses on the development of orig-
inal plays written by four local
playwrights entitled the New
NOW Play Reading Series, will
be launched at the West Windsor
Arts Center, and will include one
of Lawrencevilles very own writ-
ers.
The series, which is co-spon-
sored by the West Windsor Arts
Council and the NOW Theater
Company, provides an open set-
ting for various people to share
their feedback with playwrights
and other members of the audi-
ence, according to co-founder and
co-producing artistic director of
the NOW Theatre Company, and
playwright Lynne Elson.
Play readings are these won-
derful collaborative events that
playwrights have to go through
before our plays get done, she
said. Thats how its worked for
the last 10 or 20 years in our cul-
ture before it goes to production.
These readings are a chance for a
writer to get feedback from an au-
dience and find out what works
and what doesnt work. The feed-
back might also lead them in an-
other direction, or let them know
that theyre in the right direction,
and things like that.
Elson explained that these
work sessions are incredibly help-
ful for playwrights. They get an
unbiased look at their work from
outside sources, and the sessions
help them further develop and
complete their creations.
As a playwright myself, Ive
seen alterations made because of
play readings, she said. You
want to know how people are re-
acting to it because you have an
idea in your head as a playwright
of how you want it to go, but
sometimes whats in your head
isnt yet on the page.
Elson further explained how
playwrights also receive feedback
from actors since they work to-
gether hand in hand. However,
the actors feedback is given from
a more direct perspective, op-
posed to the type thats offered
from audience members.
Its different feedback, she
said. Actors focus more on their
personal journey as a character.
Theyre thinking with an actors
mind, and the audience is watch-
ing the whole story, so youll hear
where they [audience] zoned out,
what worked, what didnt, and all
of that.
Elson began the NOW Theater
Company a little over a year ago
with her friend and playwright
Scott Langdon because she want-
ed to start producing her own
work, and because she believes
that theres an enormous amount
of hidden talent in Mercer Coun-
ty that she hopes to expose.
Since Elson is also a member of
the Passage Theater in Trenton,
she decided to recruit other mem-
bers from the playwright unit
what the members call them-
selves to begin this series.
Shell be reading her play, A
Blessed Unrest, alongside sever-
al of her fellow members who are
also all personal friends, includ-
ing Lawrenceville resident, Ian
August.
August, who is well known in
the theater industry as both an
actor and playwright, will be
kicking off the series on Sept. 4
with his new play, The
Goldilocks Zone.
The Goldilocks Zone is about
two couples one straight and
one gay and the way that their
lives suddenly intertwine. The
straight couple is unsuccessfully
trying to have a baby, while one
member of the gay couple wishes
to be a parent. Essentially, the
woman from the straight couple
ends up inviting the man of the
Special to The Sun
Actors Andy Phelan and
Carol Todd perform in Ian
Augusts last play, Submit-
ted by C. Randall Mc-
Closkey, which was pro-
duced by Quorum Theatre
Productions for the 2011
NY International Fringe
Festival.

The Lawrence Sun
On Sept. 4, parents all over
Lawrence will either be dropping
their children off at a bus stop or
ushering them into a car to en-
sure that they are on time for
their first day of school.
But, as students set foot into
their designated schools this year,
what new things should they be
expecting?
To answer some of parents
and students most asked ques-
tions, Superintendent Crystal
Lovell detailed all of this years
additions and changes to
Lawrence Township Public
Schools (LTPS).
One of the major changes that
students will recognize is the new,
upgraded technology, which
LTPS has spent the entire sum-
mer upgrading in various build-
ings.
Most of the classrooms in the
elementary schools will be outfit-
ted with interactive projectors,
which will greatly enhance our
new math program, Lovell said.
Several classrooms in the high
school will be outfitted with new
projectors as well.
Lovell further explained how
this updated technology will be
used for new programs that are
being offered in the elementary
and high schools this year.
The new interactive projectors
that are being installed in the ele-
mentary schools will benefit the
new math program that is being
implemented.
Grades K-5 will be getting a
new math program, she said.
This program is aligned with the
Common Core State Standards,
and is designed to engage the stu-
dents through its interactive ma-

Pick-your-own apples is fami-
ly fun and kids can pick their own

W
ith schools preparing to
open their doors soon, now
is a good time to talk about
the upcoming academic year.
At The Sun, were all about commu-
nity news, which, of course, includes
covering the local school districts.
Well be at as many school board meet-
ings as possible and do our best to stay
on top of the hard news taxes,
budgets, elections and the like.
But we want to be able to bring our
readers so much more. To do that, we
need your help.
When students achieve in the class-
room, in the arts, in sports, etc., we
want to hear about it, so that we can
share that news with the entire com-
munity.
Making the honor roll to winning a
spelling bee, excelling in an extra-cur-
ricular activity, its all news to us.
Problem is, we dont always hear
about these accomplishments. Thats
where you come in.
If youre a parent, and your child
does something special, shoot us an
email. Include a photo, if possible.
If youre a teacher or principal, and
you have a special event coming up or
there is other news that your home-
town should know about, tell us about
it. If possible, well have a reporter
present to cover the event or write a
story and take photos. If not, well fig-
ure out a way to get your news into the
paper, one way or another.
Too often, the news is driven by
events that anger or sadden people.
Too often, the good work of young peo-
ple is ignored or, at the least, certainly
not celebrated the way it should be.
And there are a lot of young people
doing good these days.
We want to change that. We want to
let everyone in town know when
theres something positive going on,
when young people go beyond the ordi-
nary to help someone or have an out-
standing accomplishment.
Call, email or write. Just let us know
whats happening in your school so
that we can share it.
in our opinion
School bells to ring soon
Throughout the year, The Sun wants to be your source for school information
School news
With the start of a new school year
upon us, we want to invite everyone to
share their news with us. From the
classroom to extra-curricular activities,
let us know about what is happening in
your school, and well spread the word.
Local singer, songwriter and musician
Madeline Smith will perform at a benefit
concert and Chinese auction at Mercer
County Community College's Kelsey The-
atre on Saturday, Sept. 15 at 2 p.m.
The concert will benefit Families in
Transition (FIT), a nonprofit organization
that provides transitional housing for
homeless families in Mercer County while
they transition to self-sufficiency.
Kelsey Theatre is located at the colleges
West Windsor campus at 1200 Old Trenton
Road.
Raised in Somerset, Smiths talent was
first discovered by her piano teacher when
she was 10 years old. Through encourage-
ment she began taking voice and guitar les-
sons, which further proved her talent as a
musician. With a southern family back-
ground, she grew up on country music,
singing Patsy Cline and Johnny Cash, just
some of the music in her repertoire, which
also includes her own songs.
Smith has already headlined several
benefit concerts in support of community
and church organizations, including the 4-
H Fair in Bridgewater. She just put out her
first demo and will release her first EP
recording in 2013.
This past April, Smith won the Ameri-
can Idol Experience singing competition at
Disney World. As a result, she was award-
ed a Dream Ticket, giving her front-of-line
precedence at any American Idol audition
in 2012.
Tickets to see Madeline Smith in Con-
cert can be purchased online in advance
for $12 per person, by visiting www.tren-
tonfamiliesintransition.org. Tickets will
also be available at the door for $15 per per-
son. For more information, call Michael
Schaefer, FIT Treasurer, at (609) 448-7033, or
email gotmike365@verizon.net.

nipulatives and programs.
The high school is also opening
several new courses this Septem-
ber to take advantage of the re-
fined technology, as well as ex-
pand the current curriculum to
offer students more of a variety.
The new programs include Ro-
botics and Programming, which
is designed to explore the current
and future use of automation
technology in industry and every-
day use and will provide students
with an overview of robotic pro-
gramming language; Lifetime Fit-
ness, which is geared toward in-
creasing student awareness of
healthy behaviors and developing
personal and social skills; and
Mandarin V and American Sign
Language IV, which will be added
to the world language offerings.
Also, for students in 11th and
12th grades, there are 13 new Eng-
lish electives to choose from after
the required composition class is
accounted for, including Creative
Writing, Contemporary Shake-
speare, Womens Studies through
Drama, Gender Studies, Major
American Writers, Poetry, Major
British Writer, Film Study, Jour-
nalism, Communications in the
Real World, Literature of Mys-
tery and Adventure, and Themes
in Literature.
Lovell also explained how
LTPS are continuing the technol-
ogy initiative that is currently
running rampant throughout the
country.
We are continuing our 1:1 ini-
tiative at the high school level,
she said. Next year, every stu-
dent in grades 6, 7, 8 and 9 will
have a personal mobile device to
use for instruction and learning
in school and at home.
The 1:1 initiative is providing
each student with a laptop to use
during the school year. The initia-
tive began with each sixth grader
receiving a Netbook (type of lap-
top). When the sixth graders ad-
vanced to seventh grade, the Net-
books moved with them, and the
incoming sixth graders received
Netbooks as well.
Approximately 1,200 laptops
will be distributed to LTPS stu-
dents in grades 6-9.
In 2011-2012, we expanded the
program to eighth grade, and be-
ginning with the coming school
year 2012-2013 we expanded it
to ninth graders, Operations
Manager of LTPS Lana Mueller
said.
Aside from the new programs,
the only other changes that are
being made to LTPS is the addi-
tion of a preschool class at
Lawrenceville Elementary School
due to increased enrollment, and
a variety of new staff members
throughout the district.

High school opening new courses this fall
gay couple over to become the
sperm donor for her child, with
neither of their significant oth-
ers input involved in the deci-
sion.
Overall, the play explores the
aftermath of the two separate in-
dividuals decisions in their rela-
tionships, according to August.
It shows how those relation-
ships are taxed, how they change,
and the things that have been
brought to life by the decisions of
those two individuals, he said.
Its completely fictional, al-
though bits and pieces come from
stories Ive heard from friends
and from my personal relation-
ship, such as things we talk about
in our future and how wed like it
to go.
Although his story is fictional,
August detailed how some of the
things that have recently hap-
pened in his personal relation-
ship with his partner of almost
nine years influenced to certain
aspects of his play.
Were a newly unionized cou-
ple, and this is something that
shows the progression of our re-
lationship and wheres it going,
and one of the things that were
talking about is adoption and how
we get involved in that process
since thats something that wed
like to do, he said. Im in my
mid 30s, and I know a lot of fami-
lies are in situations like this
whats the right time to start a
family and if there are difficul-
ties in doing so, how you would be
able to work around those diffi-
culties so its important.
This is the sixth full-length
play that August has written. He
began in the industry as a profes-
sional actor while attending col-
lege, and then transformed into a
playwright in 2005 while he was
still performing.
Since then, August has had his
works produced in Manhattan,
Philadelphia and New Jersey, as
well as a dozen other states. Hes
also succeeded internationally as
well, with works produced in Aus-
tralia and Bermuda.
I feel very fortunate, he said.
There are many playwrights
who work and arent able to make
their work seen, and I feel very
lucky with the opportunities Ive
had and with the connections Ive
made.
Augusts play will open the
play reading series at 7 p.m. on
Sept. 4 at the West Windsor Arts
Center located at 952 Alexander
Road (historic Princeton Junc-
tion Firehouse) in Princeton. All
plays will cost $6 per person, and
$5 for members of the West Wind-
sor Arts Center.
Im very excited about the op-
portunity to showcase a new
piece in a new location and hope-
fully with a new audience, he
said. Im excited to hear the
piece aloud and hear the audi-
ence respond to it because some
themes are current, and hopeful-
ly it elicits a critical response
from folks. What they understand
and their general feelings about
play is something Im looking for-
ward to.
The other play readings will be
featured on Tuesdays, Sept. 25,
Oct. 2, and Oct. 30, all at 7.p.m.
The NOW Theatre Company is
also seeking actors for the play
readings.
For more information about
the plays or to inquire about act-
ing, contact Lynne Elson at

School schedules, parking situ-

have all remained the same. Bus
routes will change, as they do
every year, depending on the loca-
tion of the students enrolled.
Sports programs will also stay
the same. Information about
LTPS sports schedule for the fall
season can be found at www.colo-
nialvalleyconference.org.
Although there are some exten-
sive changes being made to this
years schedule, LTPS received a
designation from the state De-
partment of Education (NJ DOE)
in July, which should only en-
courage students to continue to
excel.
Lovell explained how the NJ
DOE designated LTPS as a high
performing district, which is
part of the states Quality Single
Accountability Continuum
(QSAC), an assessment that eval-
uates a school based on the states
accountability metrics.
The QSAC is an in-depth analy-
sis of district practices and capac-
ity that considers five areas of
school district effectiveness to de-
termine the extent to which a
thorough and efficient education
is being provided. The five areas
include instruction and program,
fiscal management, operations,
personnel, and governance.
It is a well-deserved honor for
our students, staff, families,
Board of Education and commu-
nity all played a vital role in
helping us achieve this designa-
tion, Lovell said. We look for-
ward to enhancing and enriching
the educational learning experi-
ences we provide for our stu-
dents. Our motto for our district
is Lead, Achieve, Succeed. It
doesnt matter whether you are
the teacher or the learner, if you
are in the classroom or the lunch-
room, or if you are on the stage or
the field its always an opportu-
nity to lead, achieve and suc-
ceed.
