Vic is leaving Roadside!

After steering Roadside through five years of dynamic growth, Vic has decided to move on to pursue a career in the private sector. It's difficult to discuss Vic's tenure without seeming to overdo it. But it's all true: Vic has had an incredible impact on the quality of our productions, the recruiting and retention of our volunteers, the financial viability of the theater, and the quality and quantity of fun we've had! He has been personally and professionally deeply committed to this theater, and has made it the award-winning showcase example of community theater in Europe.

WHAT WAS MOST ENJOYABLE ABOUT WORKING AT ROADSIDE?
I loved working with all the volunteers, and seeing them accomplish more than they thought themselves capable of.

WHAT DO YOU FEEL WERE SOME OF YOUR GREATEST SUCCESSES?
I think that right off the bat, we were able to produce and sustain five and six-show seasons. That speaks directly to the quality and dedication of the volunteers.

WHY DO YOU FEEL ROADSIDE IS IMPORTANT TO HEIDELBERG?
The Entertainment/Theater program is the Army's best foot forward overseas. It reflects what's different about the United States -- primarily that we are willing to volunteer so much time. Additionally, that we Americans are committed to doing a good job, even when the outcome is "just for fun."

ANY OTHER THOUGHTS? MEMORIES?
I will never forget going "Swedish" in Once Upon A Mattress; watching Barry do rope tricks from the wings [Will Rogers Follies]; hearing "I just can't do this anymore!" in Goodbye Girl; "to arms. . . to arms" in Life In The Theatre;" "Want some toast?" in True West;" "This is a small town. . ." in "Crimes of the Heart;" building an entire set just to accommodate Milky White [the cow in Into The Woods] and nearly burning the selfsame set down ; and I will never, ever forget the death of Commanche [the wooden horse in Will Rogers Follies that broke on stage].
