Strike Party

After our Sunday show, 12/8, we will "strike" the theater, removing everything we brought into the theater.  All parents should actively participate in this process.  If your committee work is done, please ask those still working, and see if they can use your help.

Remember, if you brought it in or requested another to bring it in for you, you must take it out of the theater or make other arrangements.

Cast members will remove their boxes from the green room by taking them out to their car, and thoroughly clean the green room spaces.

When our "strike" is done we will begin the Strike Party in the commons.  If you ordered a dinner, it will be served there.  If you did not purchase a meal you can certainly bring in dinner from home or any other meal you choose!  All are invited to attend the party.

At the party kids will exchange their last Secret Pal gift (valued at $5 or less) for the big reveal, we will eat together, say our thank yous and the Artistic Team will pass out certificates to all the kids as well as special awards to both the cast and crew.

Scripts and CD Deposit Return

Scripts and CD's can be turned in to Josh Bode (Stage Manager) at the Strike party for a return of the deposit you made at the beginning of our rehearsals.  Josh will compile a list of all items returned, that list will go to our office, and deposit check(s) (which are stored there) will be returned to all those on the list.

All marks in scripts must be erased before turning the script in.  Cast members who do not return their script or CD on Sunday will forfeit their deposit.

Second Weekend Update!

*Friday, 12/6, Cast and crew are called at 6:00 for our 7:00 show. 

*Parents who set up in the lobby can begin at 5:00.  Any children with you that are not in the cast and crew must stay with you as you work.

*The tables we used last weekend are in the elevator and stacked in the hall in front of it.  

*If you are a Secret Pal, REMEMBER YOUR GIFT!  There will be a table in the green room for gifts.  Take them with you when you check in and leave them on the table.  Be sure the name of your Secret Pal is clearly placed on the gift.

*If you have a parent pass and would like to use it for any show this weekend, be sure and sign up on the Parent Pass list at the Will Call table when you arrive prior to each show.  Tickets will be passed out (as available) to parents in the order they are signed in.  Parents with a parent pass cannot seat themselves in the theater without an actual ticket.  Names will be called just before each show opening and tickets distributed by the Will Call table.

*We have two shows on Saturday.  Call time is 2:00 for our 3:00 show.  Cast and crew will stay at the theater until the close of the second show.

*If you purchased a meal, it will be served Saturday between the 3:00 and 7:00 show.  If you did not purchase a meal be sure and pack one for your child.

*Sunday call time is 1:00 for our 2:00 show.

*We will be having Worship at the theater at 12:00.  Please join us if you can!  We will close Worship before 1:00 so cast and crew can make the 1:00 call time.

See you Friday!!

School Day Show!

Cast and crew are called at 9:00 AM.

We have one show at 10:00 AM.

There is no intermission break and no meet and greet time at our school day show.  If your child's class is coming to the show, your child will be able to go directly to the lobby after the show, in costume, to meet their class.  They will have a few minutes to visit!

Pick up time after our show is 12:00.  Please be on time for pick up. 

As another post explains, tickets are on sale until Wednesday at 3:00 for individuals who would like to come to the school day show.  It will be the full show, no cuts.  We will also be selling tickets at the door.

We do not have use of our regular green room as class is in session.  Kids will go directly into the theater.  Cast members will do costuming and make up on stage.

Cast members will have the back hall as their green room space for this show.  Those in the lighted room will still have the use of that room.

Parents who stay for the show can park out near the tennis courts, along the curb on 39th (the signs posted are no longer valid), or in the lower parking lot.

Please call me if you have questions.  Often my phone will not ring while I am in the school building.  If I do not pick up a call on Thursday morning, please leave a message.  I will check them often!
