ALL REHEARSALS THIS WEEK ARE MANDATORY PER THE AUDITION CONTRACT THAT EVERYONE SIGNED. NO EXCEPTIONS UNLESS IT WAS SOMETHING YOU PREVIOUSLY CLEARED WITH THE DIRECTORS IN ADVANCE (This applies to 3 students who cleared an event in advance. All other cast and crew are expected to attend every rehearsal and performance this week).
A few quick notes:
1. We are no longer accepting ads, boosters or bios. A big thank you to everyone who submitted ads and boosters - we appreciate your support!
2. All students will wear stage make-up for this show. All students, male and female are asked to purchase and bring mascara that will labeled and stored for their own personal use for the show. See chart below for hair and makeup schedule.
3. Some students STILL owe costume pieces or need to bring in shoes for their character. They were told to have their items with them on Monday. Please ask your child if they owe items or not. Thank you.
4. For dress rehearsal and show nights, the cast has been reminded that they need to use the time directly after school to work on homework and to make sure that they have a SUBSTANTIAL meal before arriving for hair and makeup. There will be healthy (allergen free) snacks available to the kids in the dressing/makeup area until they go on stage but they cannot have outside food in the dressing or makeup areas so they need to make sure to eat before they come as they won't be leaving the school until late in the evening.
5. We are still looking for volunteers to help with hair and make up. If you are available, we would love to have your help - not RSVP required, you can just show up -- Hair and makeup begins Tuesday, Thursday & Friday at 4 pm and Saturday at 11am. If you are volunteering you can bring your student with you regardless of their assigned call time (see below).
6. Advanced ticket sales will take place again this week on Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday from 2:35 to 3:15 in the lobby.
7. Snacks and water bottles are needed for dress rehearsal and each night of the show as well as the cast party (tentatively scheduled for Saturday after the matinee). If you are able to donate something, please contact Mrs. Keppler at jkeppler@newtonnj,org so that she can provide you with a list of items that are allergen free. Items can be brought to the main office at any time this week. (Please note that specific brands that are needed as they are certified to be allergen free. Thank you so much in advance!)
