Show Manager Notes--Set Build Day

THANK YOU to all parents who assisted with the set build today!  We had some super fast painters!  The set is coming along and Miss Lindsey was able to spend almost four hours rehearsing with the kids.  They went through the final two scenes with all choreography as well as went back to our first song. 

Here are the notes from today. 

  • NO SCRIPTS!!--Kids may NOT use their scripts on stage tomorrow at all.  They must have their lines, songs, choreography and blocking memorized.  We will begin cleaning up the songs and the scenes. Miss Lindsey recommends they bring their script to study in the audience if not on stage.  If they have any singing parts where they are the only one singing that portion, they need to know it and their cue of when to sing.  It is imperative that all kids are prepared tomorrow.  
  • Tickets--Please see the post below from Laura Spradley, our Ticket Coordinator.  Tickets are required to be sold by tomorrow for the minimum of 15 sold per family.  
  • Volunteers--Marcia Schiff posted a link to the sign-up genius below for all volunteer positions during the production.  Remember, each family is required to fill two positions during performances.  There are several shows we do not have anyone for positions such as concessions.  If you are working backstage or in the dressing room, you are required to complete a Background Check through the PCT website.  This is incredibly important.  
  • Baskets--If you have your child's basket, please go ahead and start bringing it no later than Tuesday.  They can bring tomorrow.  Be sure all clothes are labeled as well as the basket.  They should begin bringing their Show and Tell item everyday to practice dancing with it (for those kids in the classroom scene). 
  • Cast Party--Tara Walsh will be contacting you regarding the Cast Party in between the two Saturday shows.  We will meet at Spaghetti Warehouse at 15th and 75 for a party.  The cost should be $10 per person.  Parents are welcome to attend but will need to pay for their portion as well.  This is a lot of fun for the kids!  
  • Photo--If you have your framed 8x10 picture of your child ready, you may place it on the photo wall in the lobby anytime between now and opening night.  Just to clarify--black frame but color photo with the child's first and last name labeled for the audience to read.  
  • Mics--The following children will be using mics for the show--Junie B, Daddy/Mrs Gutzman, Herb, Lucille, Mother, Mr. Scary, May, Sheldon, Chenille, and Camille.  Children using a mic will need to arrive an hour and a half before showtime.  The others need to arrive one hour prior.
