We have decided to cancel the Friday rehearsal this week. I'll try to email everyone later, in case not everyone sees this post.
Hello everyone!
I apologize in advance, but this is going to be a long one… please respond to let me know that you received this e-mail.
Thank you for attending read through last night. Kirsten and I feel like we have a strong group and that this is going to be a great show!
Troupers… You will not need to come back until the week of October 26; which will be a Monday and Tuesday.
Please look over your calendars and if you have any further conflicts to add to the conflict calendar, please let us know by the end of this week. After that, try not to add any other conflicts unless you absolutely have to. The less time missed, the better for all concerned.
Cast, we need to change the Thursday, October 22 rehearsal. We can move it to the Wednesday directly before or the Friday directly after. Which are you more available to attend?
Also, this Thursday (blocking) will be the first scene. We will block it and run it several times. Since we don't have the stage just yet, we will do this in the lobby. Try your best to memorize your lines/blocking after we've blocked it. If you can memorize it before, that's great too!
Just to go ahead and get the bug in your ear…actors (cast/troupers) and crew (those who are working backstage or in the booth(s) during the show, will all receive two comp tickets to be used for the first weekend of the show. They are to be treated like tickets and must be surrendered by the party using them when they arrive at the box office for whichever performance they are to attend. Reservations are required and must be made at least 24 hours in advance. Box office opens two weeks prior to the opening of the show, which means that on November 26, 2015, tickets will go on sale. That said, and hopefully not to confuse anyone…you can always purchase tickets at any time by using PayPal. There is a link to our PayPal on the website. You can get there by following this link:

Tickets are less expensive if they are ordered online.
Start thinking about what you want to put in your bio. Soon, we will have an online form you can use to create your bio. Please try and use that form so that the person creating the program can basically just copy/paste. A few of the specifics about the bios is that they have to be under 100 words, they need to be in the third person, and if you want to include information about a show you were in, you want to italicize the show and put the character name in parentheses(is?).
Finally, Parents…are any of you (or other family members) interested in filling any of the following slots (bear in mind that if anyone works crew or backstage for the full run of the show, they will receive two comp tickets)?:
We are looking for the following:
Stage Manager, Set Decoration, Set Painting, Props Coordinator, Costume Coordinator, Lighting Design, Sound Design, Sound Tech, Lobby Decoration, Head shot Photography, and/or Program Design?
If so, please let us know.
THANK YOU!
Jared and Kirsten
