Some Fall 2019 Early Applicants get a small taste of campus life at IDEA School of Design

March 25, 2019 James Neufeld

IDEA School of Design students and faculty welcomed some of our Fall 2019 (IDEA23) Early Applicants and their guests to Capilano University for a casual social on Thursday March 21, 2019.

We met in Arbutus Building, third floor, room 305 at 6:30 pm for a chance to introduce some of the incoming IDEA23 cohort to some faculty and enrolled second and third-year students.

Some of the incoming IDEA23 cohort and their guests meet our current students and faculty for a light meal before the new CapU musical, 9 to 5.

Hot and cold appetizers added up to a light dinner followed by the new CapU musical “9 to 5” at the BlueShore Theatre on campus.

9 to 5 the Musical, with music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and book by Patricia Resnick, is based on the seminal 1980 hit movie. Set in the late 1970s, this hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era is outrageous, thought-provoking, and even a bit romantic. Pushed to the boiling point, three female co-workers concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy, and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy—giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains "otherwise engaged," the women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down. These three unlikely friends take control of their office and learn even in a man's world, there's nothing they can't do.

Late Admission Applicants for Fall 2019 must submit a portfolio by Wednesday, April 10th
