Rehearsal Schedule (week of 3/25)

We are getting so close to opening!  If you are planning on helping with set construction/set dressing, I'll be sending out info by Monday at the very latest.  If you want to help but don't hear anything from me, shoot me an email -- maybe I don't have you on the list or don't have your email correctly.  

If you haven't committed to a volunteer area yet, now is the time!  If you are not fingerprinted, we can use you to set up or tear down or to help with the Cast Party.  

This is our last week of rehearsals before moving into the theater!  I am shooting to stick to the listed end times but please be patient/flexible if we need to take a little extra time.  Please note that Tuesday's start time is later than the rest.

Corrected Schedule and Some Notes

Hi everyone!  Three quick things today...

#1 - Thank you so much for your time at the costume parade last night.  It took much longer than I expected (didn't factor in the higher number of actors OR that many actors have multiple costumes), but I appreciate your patience so much and LOVED seeing your hard work!  I think this is the least amount of notes I've needed to give, so thank you for following the guidelines so well!  The costumes are going to look great together on stage! 

#2 - All ticket packets are ready.  I tried to hand some out last night that hadn't been picked up yet but it quickly got too busy and I still have many that need to be signed out.  Please pick those up this week.  Also, I wasn't very clear with the "TBD" orders.  Slips that state that a TBD order has been made are included in your packets.  These are not actual tickets, just a note to say how to reserve specific dates once dates are decided on. 

#3 - I accidentally listed the wrong rehearsal time for Friday!  It is 5:30-7:30 like usual.  So sorry for the typo!

Rehearsal Schedule (week of 3/18)

Hi everyone!  We made it almost through the show Saturday, putting all the puzzle pieces into their correct order!  I never know what to expect on that first day of putting the show back together after doing all the pieces separately -- sometimes it's great, and sometimes everything falls apart and has to be rebuilt.  BUT Saturday was a good start and I'm feeling confident already that this is going to be a good show.

Since we are at the point in the process where things are moving slowly and actors will not always be used during the time they are at rehearsal, this is a good time to come with something quiet to do during the waiting times -- homework, a book, paper and crayons, etc...

Here's the schedule for this week...

Monday, March 18th - ALL CAST COSTUME PARADE -  6:30-7:30 - Senior Center
A parent should also come.  Please click here for more info if you haven't already looked it over!

Wednesday, March 20th - Willey House
4:45-5:30 - Ursula, Triton
Poor Unfortunate Souls (Reprise)

OFF BOOK -- bring scripts to review between scenes but we won't be using them during songs/scenes.

Thursday, March 21st - Senior Center
4:30-7:00 - ALL CAST

Friday, March 22nd - Senior Center

FRIDAY - LAST MINUTE CHANGE

Last minute change: 

Friday 6:30-7:30 -- I will only need Scuttle and the Gulls.  Sea Chorus can come if they'd like.  Sea Creatures, Sebastian and Flounder are not needed anymore. 

Thank you! 

Sweatshirt/Tshirt Orders

This doesn't apply to everyone, but for those of you who ordered sweatshirts or tshirts, it seems that there was a glitch with the online orders.  Please fill out a form at rehearsal tonight and give it to me (if you are not going to be there tonight or if you see this a little late, please send me your info and I'll get it on a form and passed on).  I believe some orders were received but not all -- a physical form will ensure that everyone who ordered gets what they wanted.
