First off, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to everyone who came out to one (or all) of our events last week! Everything was a major success and we would not have been able to do it without your help! We raised over $1500 last week ALONE!
In return for helping us out, we thought it was only fair to give you a peek behind the scenes of all of the events we’ve held so far, enjoy!

After auditions finished and the judges had picked the models and dancers for this year’s show, we hosted a Cast Orientation so that all of the cast could meet us (the exec) and go over the preliminary plans for the show. We even had time for some games (and pizza of course!)

SYN BEAUTY BAR - if you missed out, we may be holding another one in January...
If you made it to Gerts last Friday afternoon for our Beauty Bar, you know what a success it turned out to be! Shoutout to Evie, our set design manger and henna tattooist extraordinaire and Andi, our VP Sponsorship, the girl was a manicure machine!

And finally, we wouldn’t be SynesthASIA if we didn’t know how to PARTY! Here are some pics from the Cast Party we threw for the cast and crew of SynesthASIA 2011, graciously hosted by Tonic Clublounge.
