Countdown Continues - 3 Weeks to Oz

Hello Everyone,
I just want to say what an amazing cast you are. We worked really hard this last week and you all came through beautifully.  We have finished all of our blocking and choreography and are ready to start run-throughs. That puts us right on schedule. The cake is baked and now we are ready to frost it.
Please read this week's reminder and then be sure that your parents read the Parent's Note.

Reminders for this week:
We will be working with our accompanist for the first time on Monday. Please go over all of your songs with your CDs so that you are ready to sing and dance. It will sound a little different with the piano but not much.
Practice your dances!!!! I can't say this too many times. You must know your dance moves. 
NO SCRIPTS ON STAGE ONCE WE GET TO THE PLAYHOUSE! Clerisa will be prompting, but remember, you hold things up if you don't know your lines. So go over them everyday.
Grips: If you are doing any gripping in either Act 1 or Act 2 please go over your grip plan so that you know what you are supposed to be moving and what scene you are moving it in. 
THURSDAY IS COSTUME DAY: Remember that we don't have private changing spaces at the Playhouse so you need to wear your white tanktops for girls, t-shirts for boys, & light colored shorts to rehearsal. Wear them under your regular clothes so that you can easily change into your costume.
Please bring a bag with your name on it to put your regular clothes in so that nothing gets lost.

Special Note to Parents:

Children 18 and under are $5, small children are free if they sit on a lap.

Volunteers: There are still lots of volunteer opportunities and needs. If you have not filled in your volunteer form and turned it in to Lauretta or to me, please take a moment and read about the different jobs that need doing and fill out the form.  Click on the Volunteer tab at the top of this blog.
Thank you, parents, for sharing your wonderful and talented kids with us.

See Everyone on Monday at the Playhouse at 3:15,
Dee Ann
