Flanagan explained the portfolios include samples from the children's work in art, lan- guage and all other learning disciplines. Audio recordings will be added this year and plans are in the works to add a visual record of the child through video or still photography. "We are unique in using this system of evaluation. I don't even know of many elemen- tary schools that use portfolios, let alone preschools. With this parents and teachers have authentic, tangible examples of each child's progress, and we will know where we need to help each child," Flanagan said.

"I made a deal with them to do their voice-overs and TV commercials in exchange for a free run of the TV station so I could learn." she said. Not long after that, she decided to form her own television production com- pany. She successfully presented the TV station with a show concept geared to help women over 40 with a disposable income. "They need to take care of themselves physically," she said. Over the next three years she produced shows featuring issues important to women: women's cancer, legal advice, financial advice and she said, "lifetime survival stuff." "The whole focus of the show was make yourself aware of possibilities... of what could happen. I produced it, did the location set up and shooting, got my own interviews and produced a 30-minute weekly TV show for three years." With a positive attitude, McBryde is convinced that the Pirate Playhouse will overcome the stigma and low ticket sales that resulted from trie bitter member/board dispute that raged over the firing of former artistic director Robert Cacioppo. "It a professional theater supported by the island. I know it has some prob- lems and needs some work. If people came here and dearly loved the theater at one point, I can't imagine they won't come back. Theater is not one person, five TRICOLOR HERON people, not a group. It belongs to the community.
