CHANGE in TOMORROW'S Rehearsal

Hello again!

It came to my attention last night that, even though I switched the rehearsals for yesterday and tomorrow, a lot of people didn't realize it until they got there and saw the confused look on my face as to why you were there. We're now a month into the production and, I don't know if y'all noticed, but I like to use email as my biggest form of communication, texting being my second. (I dropped the texting ball yesterday and forgot to send that one out--sorry).

Honestly, with two toddler kiddos, I would have a hard time calling everyone to remind them about rehearsal; we have a rather large cast and I need to use the little extra time I have to not work on this magnificent production, taking care of my family.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE check your email and/or the blog to MAKE SURE YOU KNOW if and when you need to come to rehearsal. The schedule will continue to get moved around as we adjust for absences in previous (and upcoming because of Spring Break) rehearsals--- so IT IS IMPERATIVE that you CHECK THE BLOG and/or YOUR EMAIL! Thanks for reading my rant; I'm off my soapbox now.

Since attendance has been sparse at some rehearsals, this is what I expect for tomorrow (please be on time)---it was hard to start on time yesterday when we have a lot of characters in the scene.

This has changed since the beginning of the week, so pay attention ;)

9:00am-9:45 am

Scene 2.3: James, John, Peter, Cleopas, Disciple, Savior, Andrew, Matthew, Thaddeus, Phillip, James Alphaeus, Simon Zelotes, Nathanael, Disciple 1, Disciple 2, Disciple 3

10:00-11:00 am

Scene 2.5: James, Thomas, John, Peter, The Savior, Andrew, Matthew, Thaddeus, Phillip, James Alphaeus, Simon Zelotes, Nathanael

11:00am- 12:00pm

Finish Scene 1.2 & 2.2: Disciple and Cleopas

12:15- 2:00pm

The REST of 3.2--- CLOSING OF THE SHOW----EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE THERE

A couple things to bring to your attention:

• Remember, we now have rehearsal on Wednesday, March 16th from 6-9 in the Cultural Hall. I'd like to finish the closing of the show, start the OPENING, and rework 2.1.
• If you CANNOT make a rehearsal PLEASE let me know before I miss your lovely presence at the actual rehearsal--- we only have NINE rehearsals left until we perform for an audience!
• SHOES: You will be responsible for the shoes to wear with your costume. In the email, I attached a document that has what styles would be approved, if you have a question--- ASK ME! I'm pretty approachable! ;) The good thing is these styles are pretty popular now, so you shouldn't have a hard time finding some. Chorus, you don't need shoes unless you're an extra in scenes 2.1 and 2.4.
  
• STAGE and TECH HELP: WE NEED EXTRA HELP. If you know anyone who would like to work with Costumes, Lighting, Sound, Makeup & Hair, Stage Crew, Set & Advertising.... PLEASE GIVE THEM THIS EMAIL ADDRESS or GIVE ME THEIR NAMES and CONTACT INFO!
  
• EXTRAS: I need a bunch more people to help out by being resurrected beings in scene 1.3. We'll use the choir as extras, but I need more bodies to create the effect. Just like the stage/tech help, if you know anyone that's interested, please give them this email to contact me ASAP! We can use ALL AGES!

I think that's it for now---- Thanks again for your willing participation in this production!
