The Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre is proud to announce the dates for the 8th Annual Del Close Marathon!

This year's marathon will be the weekend of July 28-30, and will take place on three stages. We'll also have awesome special shows on three stages during the week leading up to the marathon (July 24-28) including WeirDass!

And all week long we'll be offering special workshops. Details TBA.

The deadline for submission is April 30th.

Sorry to be a pest, we just love the past few years we have been a part of the Marathon and I want to make sure you get our submission.

I submitted and never got the confirmation email (I even checked my junk box) and I try'd to resubmit and it said the show title we submitted has already been submitted.

I have emailed dcm@ucbt.net but haven't heard back.

I know this is a huge undertaking to organize so I don't mean to be a fly in the ointment I just want to make sure you get our stuff. We are all really excited about the fest.

We submitted online and sent our packet priority mail and know from the post office that it was received. However, we never got any confirmation email from anyone. Is there something further we need to do? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey Jesse,

Joe Holman here. We checked and have found nothing. We didn't know we were supposed to get an email, and didn't check here until last night and found out. We haven't gotten anything and wondered if anyone there knows about our submission.

You may want to try sending a PM to Mullaney or visiting this thread. While he doesn't seem to be the one organizing DCM this year, he is the one who wrote the scripts to generate the emails.

[jesster]

This, of course, assumes that you have already tried contacting Anthony King via email or PM.

[Joeal]

Well, apparently I was looking at the wrong email address. We did receive the confirmation and the response was sent. My bad. Can't wait to hear. Thanks Jesse.
