TECH WEEKS: All students called!

In case you were unsure -- ALL STUDENTS ARE CALLED TO BE AT REHEARSALS from here until the show.  Since we are a little behind, the schedule may adjust slightly on what we are doing each night, but every student is called from here on out.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
There will be tons of down-time.  Bring a book to read, homework to do, and a snack (but please don't eat in the theater!).  There will be a lot of stopping and starting, so please be patient and don't use that time to have a conversation with your friends.  Older kids -- my younger kids look up to you and are watching you.  Please be a good example to them and help keep everyone on track.  The kids who have been doing that thus far have been A HUGE help to Miss Cindy.  Thank you for your efforts.

REFRESHER ON THE SCHEDULE:
Tuesday:  Run Act 1 from 4:00 - 7:00.  
  • We will run Act 1.  Any extra time, I will finish Wild Goose Chase.  If we get to a spot that I can let people go while I work on Wild Goose Chase, I will.  
Wednesday:  Run Act 2 from 4:00 - 7:00.

Thursday:  RUN SHOW from 4:00 - 7:00.

Friday:  4:00 - 6:30:  Run Musical Numbers/Teach Warts and All Reprise (ALL CAST)
**Please note, I do realize there is a special musical ceremony on Friday night with Mark Woods.  Please arrive to the Fay Auditorium as soon as you can after your rehearsal.  I will let all students go at 6:30 in order to make it to the high school.

Saturday:  9:00 - 1:00 SET BUILDING (ALL HANDS ON DECK, PARENTS!)
STUDENTS:  Music Rehearsal 11:00 - 1:00 (Please bring music books)
**EXTENSION OF REHEARSAL / 1:00 - 3:30 - Fix any problem spots / RUN SHOW
Parents:  I need to add this extension of rehearsal on Saturday, as the original schedule said 2:00.  Please do your best to allow your child to be there.  It would probably be smart to also provide a drink and/or snack to keep the kids healthy!  We will begin providing meals Monday of tech week.
