Revised Rehearsal Schedule (11/30) - Dec 2nd - Dec 18th

We have a revised schedule (click link) with minimal changes.

 

Revised Rehearsal Schedule (11/30) - Dec 2nd - Dec 18th

 

The original schedule was created before casting was complete, and we realized later that we had some scenes with our younger actors (K-4) being kept late unintentionally.  In addition, we added a few characters to some scenes to give them a little more stage time.

 

Change Summary:

 

Tue Dec 2nd - Changed to a Read Thru (ALL called)

 

Wed Dec 3rd - Addition of Sailors, Pilots & Princesses to Under the Sea

                      - Deletion of Scene 1 from 7:30-8:30pm

 

Wed Dec 17th - Replacement of Scene 16 (7:30-8:30) with Scene 2 (7:30-8:30)

 

PLEASE NOTE:

 

Pilots/Sailors are also Chefs

Princesses are also Crabs

Wrangling Request - First Rehearsals

Hi everyone,

It is that time again.  With rehearsals beginning next week, we are looking for parents to help chaperone.  For the first month or so, we will ask for volunteers.  Closer to the performance dates we will assign each family to specific rehearsals.  

What is wrangling?  

Wrangling is assisting the directors with keeping the kids quiet and focused on learning.  Any parent that has completed the Virtus training can wrangle.  There is no need to have any kind of musical experience.  We are all parents.   That is all the experience that you need.  Remember that if you are not wrangling, you will be asked to not be in the room while rehearsal is going on.  Wrangling is a great way to get a sneak peek every now and then.  

We will be using the library, classrooms and occasionally the parish center for rehearsals.  It's important to remember that food/gum is not allowed during rehearsals.  Children may bring a water bottle if needed.  We are not allowed to play with items in the classrooms* and everything should be put back the way we found it before we leave for the evening. 

The number of kids at each practice will determine the number of wranglers needed.  We will also need some parents from each age group, Kindergarten - 4th grade and 5th grade - 8th grade.  

Here is a list for the first 3 weeks of practice of the number of parents needed.  Please let me know if you can help at one of these practices.

Tuesday, December 2nd

K-4th grade:  5 parents

5-8th grade:  2 parents

*Classroom items that should not be touched includes things like teacher’s desks, smart boards, blackboards/chalk/erasers, inside children’s desks, paper/crayons/markers/scissors/glue/pencils that belong to the classroom, personal items/furniture, classroom materials that are in view and accessible, items in cabinets or bookshelves, classroom games/toys.  During these early rehearsals all the children should be engaged in learning songs or where to stand for a scene and should not have much down time.

Audition Reminders for Saturday (Nov 8th)

Audition Reminders for Saturday (Nov 8th)

• Sign-up for an audition slot by Thursday afternoon (Nov 6th)
• Bring your sheet music if you plan to sing with accompaniment!
• Limit yourself to 32 bars (approx. 1 min).  Remember that in the interest of fairness and keeping auditions moving, the directors may cut you off if you run over. 
• Bring the audition form and family information forms with you OR leave enough time (15 mins)  prior to your audition to fill out the forms.
• Arrive extra early.  There are boys' basketball games and playground clean-up at the same time as auditions, so leave some extra time to find a parking spot.
• Audition check-in will be “under” the front stairs in the hall between the pre-school and 1^st grade rooms.  Auditioners will be escorted upstairs in their audition group.
• Invitations for call-backs will occur Saturday evening.

Audition & Family Information Forms

Below are links to the Audition & Family Information Forms. Click the link to view/print the forms. 

While we will have forms available to fill out at auditions, it would be helpful to have the forms completed prior to arriving for your audition time slot.  If it is not possible to complete the forms ahead of time, please try to arrive early enough to allow for paperwork.

You will need one audition form per student auditioning.  One Family Information Form covers multiple students within the same family.
