FSU School of Theatre tickets on sale for 2024-2025 season 

Tickets are now available for the Florida State University School of Theatre’s 2024-2025 season, which will feature three musicals and two plays showcasing the artistry and skill of the program’s students on stage and behind the scenes.

“The 2024-2025 season truly has something for everyone, and we are so excited to share these stories with our patrons,” said Brad Brock, director of the School of Theatre. “Each production offers incredible learning opportunities for our students, as well as world-class entertainment for our community.”

The School of Theatre will kick the season off Oct. 18 with the classic Tony-nominated musical comedy “Once Upon a Mattress,” directed by Christine Hansen (MFA 2018).

“I’m so excited to be directing for the School of Theatre again,” Hansen said. “They’ve put together a dream team of designers, musical directors, choreographer and stage managers for me to work with. Together, with what I know will be an amazingly talented and creative cast, we are going to make a joyously enchanted version of the princess and the pea story. ‘Once Upon a Mattress’ is going to be fun from start to finish!”

From Nov. 1-10 in the Lab Theatre, the school will present Sarah DeLappe’s Pulitzer-nominated play “The Wolves,” a coming-of-age story focused on a suburban girls’ soccer team.

This season’s annual Theatre for Young Audiences production, showing Nov. 21-24, is “Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed: The Rock Experience.” This family-friendly musical is based on the hit children’s book by Mo Willems, “Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed” and features rock music and a cast of quirky characters.

In Spring 2025, the school will present the comedy musical “Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein” and Karen Zacarias’ award-winning play “The Sins of Sor Juana,” inspired by the real-life story of 17th-century Latin-American poet Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz.

Tickets for individual shows are $10-$35 and can be purchased online, by phone at (850) 644-6500, or at the Fine Arts Ticket Office in the Fine Arts Building at 540 West Call Street starting Sept. 2024.

Leon County Schools to delay school day as 'potent' severe weather system threatens

Leon County Schools will be delaying its school day by an hour for each school tomorrow due to the severe storm system passing through the Big Bend region.

High Schools will start at 8:30 a.m., elementary schools will start at 9:30 a.m. and middle school will start at 10:30 a.m.

According to district spokesperson Chris Petley, buses will still run tomorrow and be delayed by an hour as well. Dismissal times will remain the same and afterschool activities will continue. He said parents should check their emails and parent portals for further details from their school about before school care plans.

Jefferson and Wakulla County Schools will also be closed, and Franklin County Schools will delay the school day to start at 10 a.m. Florida State University’s Tallahassee campuses will delay the start of classes and normal business operations until 11 a.m. Thursday.

Florida A&M University will delay the start of classes and business operations until noon Thursday.

Parts of Alabama, Georgia and Florida, including Tallahassee, are under a tornado watch until 9 p.m. A wind advisory and flood watch has also been issued until Thursday at 2 p.m.

"This one definitely is one of the stronger ones we've seen this year," said National Weather Service - Tallahassee meteorologist Joe Worster of the storm system. "There are some pretty potent dynamics."

Forecasters warn that the system could spawn a "couple strong tornadoes" and generate an isolated barrage of "ping-pong ball sized hail." They say the region could see scattered gusts of up to 75 mph winds.

"Severe storms are pushing east ... and will be knocking on our door within the next couple hour," forecasters wrote on X. "There’s a history of strong winds, rotation, and heavy rain with this activity."

Forecasters expect the brunt of the bad weather to hit the Tallahassee area overnight between 11 p.m. Wednesday and 4 a.m. Thursday.

New College of Florida board approves $200k bonus for Corcoran, denies tenure to professor

The board voted on tenure for seven professors, approving all but one..

New College of Florida's board of trustees voted Thursday to approve tenure for six professors, deny tenure to one professor, and approve a $200,000 bonus for President Richard Corcoran as part of his yearly evaluation.

The annual bonus, as laid out in Corcoran's contract with New College, is based on his performance since taking over as the college's leader last March. The additional pay is in addition to his $699,000 base salary, which combined with other benefits and bonuses brings Corcoran's total compensation to about $1.1 million — among the highest in the state university system despite New College being the smallest Florida public university.

Corcoran's evaluation was based on eight performance goals, which the committee determined Corcoran met or made adequate progress toward. The goals included: increasing fundraising for New College, increasing campus life inclusive of improvements to student housing, food services, adding sports, re-envision the campus master plan, increasing campus safety and security, faculty additions with growth and excellence, increasing enrollment growing to 1,200 by end of year five, enrich academic programs and offerings, and increase second-year retention metric growing to 85% by year five.

"President Corcoran has brought in $50 million in appropriations," said Trustee Matthew Spalding. "My assumption is that previous presidents also received bonuses. This seems to be a bonus that was actually earned."

The vote was near-unanimous, with only one "no" vote from faculty Trustee Amy Reid.

Denying tenure

The board also voted on tenure for seven tenure-track professors, approving all but one. Professors Rebecca Black, Lin Jiang, Nassima Neggaz, Tania Roy, Athena Rycyck, Gerardo Toro-Farmer and Hugo Viera-Vargas were all up for a tenure vote at Thursday's meeting, but Viera-Vargas was denied at the recommendation of Corcoran despite public outcry for the board to approve his tenure.

"Denying him tenure would be a mistake for a campus with an actively understaffed music department and an expanding body of Latin American students," said Andy Trihn, a third-year computer science student at New College, during public comment.

Tenure-track faculty endure a rigorous tenure process with letters of recommendation, committee reviews and evaluations. The board's tenure committee recommended each of the seven tenure candidates be approved for tenure. However, Corcoran provided the board with a recommendation to deny Viera-Vargas based on missing certain qualitative metrics.

Viera-Vargas, an assistant professor of Caribbean/Latin American studies and music, was previously denied tenure at an April meeting last year along with four other professors up for early tenure . He was notably a plaintiff in a lawsuit against SB266, a sweeping higher education bill from Gov. Ron DeSantis which also removed arbitration in university employment disputes.

Several public commenters said denying Viera-Vargas tenure amounts to retaliation from the administration against a faculty member for being a plaintiff in a lawsuit involving New College of Florida. Now denied tenure, Viera-Vargas' future at the college stands in question as universities don't generally renew contracts with faculty it denies tenure to, according to the faculty union.

Before the vote, Reid asked the board members to weigh the significance of their vote and the message it sends to the faculty. She also says the numbers that the president used to evaluate Viera-Vargas were faulty, and the board should consider qualitative factors as well.

"His numbers are higher, closer in line with averages than you may think," Reid said. "The quality of his teaching is exceptionally high, and he also brings wonderful performances to our campus."

Corcoran rebutted Reid, pointing to Viera-Vargas' shortfall in quantitative metrics as laid out in his memo to the tenure committee. In his memo, Corcoran said Viera-Vargas had "only sponsored a total of 29 contracts (average of 5.8 per year), 9 tutorials (average of 1.8 per year), 3 theses (average of 0.6 per year), and served on 15 baccalaureate committees (average of 3 per year)," which he said did not meet the bar for tenure.

Viera-Vargas was not at the meeting, nor did he attend a union press conference afterward.

In a statement following the meeting, the New College Chapter of United Faculty of Florida denounced the board's decision, stating that it "undermined the meritocratic process" and was based on "weak and unprecedented rationales."

"This decision creates an environment of fear for both junior and senior faculty who may perceive this act as a threat by the administration that no faculty members are safe," the statement read.
