Happy Christmas Break!!!

Everyone should be practicing A LOT over break! 

As we look toward the next few months, we wanted to give you an idea of what the schedule will look like.  Through the month of January rehearsals will usually conclude at 4:30.  Please pick up your student promptly.  In February, our times may need to adjust some depending on how the students pick up their parts. 

Students need to have homework available to work on when  not on stage.  There will be some days students are asked to be at rehearsal but will not be working on stage the entire time. 

Everyone Bring a Rubbermaid tote for costume and props

Students must be off book whenever we are ready to work on blocking a song.  You may bring your book on stage to write down blocking.  But you shouldn’t need to look at it for words.

Rehearsal Change

What a great start we have had!  We are already through the first three songs!

Because several of the students are in Chain Link on Thursday, we are going to have the Whos, Cat, Wicks, Mayor, Mayor's Wife come to practice tomorrow, because of early release we will be finished at 3:30 tomorrow. 

Things are progressing quickly so we will shorten practices to 4:30.  Please keep checking back as that now that we know that several kids have conflicts with honor society and chain link we are going to have to adjust rehearsals around them.  Thanks for being flexible!

First Rehearsal Today!!

Our first read-thru will be this afternoon Monday, December 2nd for full cast.  We will rehearse from 2:45-5:00 with a short parent meeting following the rehearsal.  Please let us know if you are unable to attend the parent meeting.  At the rehearsal you will need to bring your $30 fee and you will be given your script and vocal practice cd as well as your show contract.

Below is the rehearsal schedule up until we leave for Christmas Break.  If you have any conflicts that were not listed prior, please let me know as we are beginning Dec 2nd rather than Dec 9th.
