Page 8 The Jewish Floridian of Tampa / Friday, September 7,1984 WATCH THIS SPACE! Did you see the front page that told you to turn to this page? Or did you find it by mistake? At any rate, start looking for this page every issue, as the Jewish Community Center will be having its very own space which will al- low us to alert you, in depth, to future programs at the JCC. As time goes on we will see what "columns" do the best job in interpreting our Center to you. Any feed back you care to give would be most appreciated, and should be channeled through Terry Abrahams. 872-4451. We hope that you have also read your Fall Program Guide, have realized the extend of our expan- sion of programming (and this is just the beginning, folks), and have determined how you can be a part of the Center, either by at- tendiing classes ongoing activ- ities, or one-time presentations. Many have been detailed on this page, but many have not so look and join! AUDITIONS FOR MUSICAL An original musical, "Noah's Lark" will be presented by the Center on Nov. 10 and 11. Audi- tions for this, the beginning of a theater group will be on Sunday, Sept. 16, from 9 a.m. to 12 noon. Auditions will be at the Center in the auditorium. Sheet music will be provided, as will an accom- panist, or you may bring your own. If you want to dance, please dress comfortably for a quick evaluation of your skills. Previ- ous experience is not necessary. Also needed will be musicians, backstage people such as make- up, scenery, props, and costumes. If you would like to help with tickets, programs, etc., you may 1 attend auditions, but also may just call in to Terry. This is your chance to (excuse the expression) "Ham it up" come have fun! ISRAELI DANCING If you've never done Israeli dancing, now is the time! A group is forming at the Center which will tentatively meet on Wednesdays, at 8 starting Sept. 12. If this is not a good time for you, please call and let Terry know, as this is not etched in granite at this point. All levels are welcome. Beginners will be taught, advanced people will be accommodated through a request period following teaching. Lots of people have talked about trying Israeli Dancing if it were avail- able so now's the chance to put your feet where your mouth is IVRIT ONLY We're not offering lessons in Hebrew. But we are offering you a chance to practice speaking by forming a club that will meet once a month. This club would be for Israeli's if they wish, people who have been to Israel and are "losing" their Hebrew, people who read the prayers, but would like to speak, or whatever. This club will be similar to the Fran- caise Alliance, a social occasion on which to speak Ivrit only. The group may decide if they would like to have further involvement. Please come to the first meeting on Sept. 19 at 7:30 to see if this is a program you would be inter- ested in.
