DUE TO THE EARLY SCHOOL CLOSURE

FRIDAY NIGHT’S PERFORMANCE HAS BEEN  RESCHEDULED FOR SATURDAY AT 7PM

THAT MEANS 2 PERFORMANCES ON SATURDAY

As anticipated, the weather has caused us to have to postpone our performance this evening.  Any cast member that is unable to attend the Saturday night performance and did not already tell us, please call Mrs. Penny at (973) 903-2930 right away so that we can figure out a plan to cover your part.

TICKETS:  Any tickets sold for Friday evening will be honored for the same seats on Saturday night at 7pm.  If friends or relatives bought tickets for Friday and would rather attend the Saturday afternoon performance, they can bring their tickets to the 2pm show (box office opens at 1:30) and exchange them for an open seat at that performance instead, unless we happen to sell out before they arrive.

Here is the procedure for Saturday:  Students will arrive at the school on Saturday morning for their hair and makeup at the times they were given earlier this week on the Blog page.  Following the 2pm performance the cast will change out of their costumes temporarily and cast and crew will have their Pizza Cast Party in the Cafeteria (no permission slip needed).  At 5:30 the students will re-dress in costume, have their hair and makeup touched up and prepare for the second show at 7pm. The second performance should be done by 9pm.

*****  PLEASE, do not bring outside snack food to the cast party.  A few students asked about bringing a sandwich to have in place of pizza due to dietary restrictions.  That is perfectly fine however we ask that the students do not bring any other items like chips, etc. because these items tend to get shared around at a party and for everyone’s safety we need to make sure that everything is NUT FREE and nothing gets cross-contaminated by hands moving in and out of chip bags.  Rest assured that there will be lots of snacks provided at the party, but everything needed to be purchased in advance according to the school’s nut free guidelines.

***** Hair and makeup volunteers – If you are available on Saturday evening, we would be so grateful to have your assistance once again!!!!!!

**** Also, we are in need of parent volunteers to chaperone the cast during the show Saturday night.  The cast members hang out in the library until they appear in their scenes but need to be supervised.  Any help will be most appreciated!!!

*****Just a reminder that due to the parade in Newton on Saturday it will be more difficult to get around town on Saturday morning.  Also, the emergency vehicles that participate in the parade historically set up on Halsted Street by the school so the road may be blocked off at one end earlier in the day before the start of the parade at 11:30.  If you are coming to drop off your student for hair and makeup and find the street closed off, please let any town personnel know that you are scheduled to arrive at the school for a school function.

THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP!

We are looking forward to 2 wonderful shows on Saturday!!
