Stagedoor Weekly
Weekly Update for Annie Get Your Gun
Week 8 UPDATES...
This last full week before show week is traditionally a busy one. Please encourage your kiddos to get rest, eat well and stay on top of their homework. The schedule shifts this week from afternoon to evening rehearsals. Call time refers to when they should arrive so the rehearsal can begin on time. I keep reminding them that "on time is late and early is on time" so hopefully the way the schedule is designed it will put this motto into action! In addition please note that Saturday's rehearsal concludes at 4pm this week as we will be adding the pit orchestra to the mix!
Again I say THANK YOU to the parent volunteers who are giving so much of their time and talents. Saturday alone I was humbled to see how many people were there to work on sets, costumes, make-up, hall duty, etc. The atmosphere is one of contagious enthusiasm among the students and the adults - that's what makes it a strong show and happy memory for all involved!!

Lunch break will be at 11:30 this week so if you need to drop food off please do so at Door 27 (near the chorus room). Only those adults (which means anyone 18 years of age of older) with their clearances are permitted inside. Parent volunteers will be there and happy to deliver lunches with a smile! Rehearsal will be done promptly at 4pm.
PRODUCTION POUCH...
Their bags should contain all their under dressings (though washing them from time to time is a brilliant idea), costume needs such as tights, character shoes/cowboy boots, small bag to hold their jewelry, some snacks, etc....anything they might need for rehearsals. Upperclassmen have also suggested they keep their makeup and hair goodies in a bag along with makeup wipes and yes deodorant. Their bag should also have their name in it somewhere just in case!

Leading characters will be learning more about their specifics this week in terms of their hair, makeup and wigs. Some color on the cheeks, lips and definition on the eyes are a good place to start. Tricia Smith is our hair/makeup parent and she will lead the charge in guiding the cast to looking their best.
Hair...each gentleman will get their specifics this week at Monday's rehearsal and ladies at Tuesday's rehearsal. Ladies should bring along hair ties, bobby pins and hairspray.
