Everyone,
This weekend (starting 3/15) we begin our set construction in the gym……it’s crunch time.  We will be starting with laying the floor down in the gym on Friday at 3:30pm, followed by installing the lighting, and set construction starting Saturday morning and extending through Spring Break. WE NEED HELP – ALL KINDS OF HELP. We have jobs for all trades and skill levels, including no trades and no skill levels. Please, if you have time this Fri-Sat-Sun, stop by the gym and lend a hand. 
 
Also – some reminders regarding costumes:
1. Girls need black character shoes
2. Girls need nylons or tights that are skin colored
3. Boys need black shoes with dark socks
4. All middle school cast are wolves. This requires black pants and a plain black long sleeved t-shirt
5. If I’ve asked you to bring something specific, please bring it to the gym this weekend, or to an upcoming rehearsal
Tickets are on sale at the Cambria Chamber of Commerce. Please make all efforts to encourage your friends, family, neighbors, strangers, etc. to attend the show. Ticket sales are primarily what allow this club to go on year after year.
T-shirts will now be on sale in the gym (after Saturday).
If you have not already done so, please pay your $35 costume fee. Checks may be made payable to ‘CUHS Drama.’

Thanks very much, Kirk

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to send a reminder that for the upcoming choreography sessions this coming Saturday and Sunday it is crucial that everyone attend (except Maxx, Evan, Ariel). We will be doing the choreography for “Be Our Guest”. I have not heard of anyone not being able to attend, but be forwarned, if you absolutely cannot make it, let me know asap. If you don’t let me know ahead of time and you don’t show up, you will not be in the number. Remember to wear comfortable clothing that you can move in, tennis shoes or dance shoes, bring water and snacks, and bring your homework or something to read while you are waiting for your time on stage. Our choreographer Sonya is very fun to work with, but she is also a professional, so she is coming in expecting that everyone has developed good rehearsal skills. “Show her what you got!”

Now for the survey,

I already asked last week at one of our vocal rehearsals, but I would also like to ask parents. Spring break happens the week before our dress rehearsal week this year and we would like to have some rehearsals during that week as long as we have most of our cast. The Sunday of dress rehearsal week (March 31) is traditionally our first dress rehearsal, but this year it is also Easter Sunday. So you can see we have some scheduling challenges the two crucial weeks before our first performance. With that in mind, cast members (or parents) please let me know the following:
1. Will you be available some or all of Spring Break for rehearsals. If some, then when?

2. Would you be available late afternoon into the early evening on Easter Sunday for a dress rehearsal.

Thanks all, you are doing a great job.

Please note the following:
 
Middle School Cast
 
We will begin looking for costumes for the middle school cast this Saturday at 9:00 in the costume room at the old grammar school. Please do your best to be there, it shouldn’t take very long. If you have a parent who wants to help, they are more than welcome to stay. 
 
High school cast:
 
Make sure Alex has your cell phone number so I can call you when I am ready for your costume fitting. We are working on the opening scene first and then will move to the enchanted objects right after the holidays.
 
Also, a reminder that there is a vocal rehearsal for those with individual parts in “Belle” after school on Monday in the Music Room.

Nov 262012
 
We have scheduled vocal rehearsals for all cast for the following days:
 Wed 12/5, Tues 12/11, Th 12/13 – All rehearsals will start at 6pm and will be held in the CUHS Music Room.

High School Students Reminder: Table reading and improv training this week 11/27 and 11/29 starting at 6pm.
