PARENT MEETING TONIGHT

A lovely note from our Parent Coordinator:
 

Hi Mulan Families,

This is a reminder that we have an ALL PARENT meeting on Monday, January 31, at 5 p.m. (when you drop off your child).  The meeting should last no longer than one hour, but it will cover TONS of information that you are just dying to know.  Seriously,  things seem to be going really well, but with 53 kids involved, this meeting is intended to make sure that everyone is on the same page.  Details will be explained to your kids too, but there are things they can't be prepared for without parental support - this production will be a family/team effort.    NOTE:  If you are one of the two rehearsal aides Monday evening, you will be able to join us by 5:10 p.m.

Topics to be covered:
Tech Week Schedule - what to expect / what is YOUR responsibility to your child
Green RoomS - break down of NEW locations
Costume Needs - by character
Make-up- some things your child is solely responsible for - broken down by character
Hair - broken down by character how it must be styled and or colored (be prepared parents of blondes!)
Pre-Show Schedule Break down
for cast, tech, and volunteers
Volunteers - what is expected
Post-Show responsibilities

PLUS - We now need 2 additional adults backstage per show to help with sets  AND1 parent in the Green Room per show.  Also, we will be needing a parent to handle DRY ICE for each show - if that is a particular interest of yours!   Please come prepared to sign-up if you are available.

Honestly, it may take a small army of Wyomingites to pull this production off, but I am amazed by the dedicated parents and families that have made the set beautiful, the costumes fit, and the black eye make-up work, etc. etc. etc.  Thank you ALL for the hard work you have put forth or will put forth in the upcoming weeks!  Our children are the ones who will reap the benefits, so thank you for making my job easier.

Thanks,
Amy
