Lots of last minute things to get through so please read this entire email. Item #7 is about the cast party!
1. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are dress rehearsal from right after school until 8pm. Dinner break is at 6:15pm. Cast and crew must bring their own dinner and water bottles.
2. Actors must bring any missing pieces of their costume. If your actor is not sure what remaining pieces they need, please email Lisa Brumm at lisa.brumm@axa-advisors.com.
3. On Monday, actors must bring their own makeup and hair brushes for hygienic reasons. Please put all items in a Ziploc bag labeled with the actor's name. All actors must wear a foundation (not a pressed finishing powder) that is one shade darker than their skin tone, and blush. This is to make sure that they do not have pale faces under the lights. Some mascara and eyeliner is nice too so that the eyes get noticed. Girls may also wear eyeshadow. There will be parents in the dressing room to assist with makeup application and hairstyling. Application sponges and facial wipes will be provided.
4. At the beginning of Monday'srehearsal, there will be a good bit of stage set up required before the actual dress rehearsal starts. After that the directors may choose to run the entire show, so actors need to have everything ready to go.
5. Actors and crew and musicians and volunteers will be given dinner on show nights which will be around 4:45pm. Thanks to everyone who is providing dinner items. It takes great effort to feed 65 people!
6. Strike (the big clean up of the gym and stage after the show) is on December 15 from 9:45-1:00. All cast and crew must attend with an adult if they want to attend the Cast party.
7. The cast party is December 15 at Kenny & Zuke's on 2376 Northwest Thurman Street from 7-10:30ish. A light dinner of hot dogs, sliders (some gluten free) and pizza will be served. Wine and beer is available for purchase for the adults! This is a family event and is always a great time for everyone to decompress after two intense weeks. There is usually lots of singing! Cast and crew need to come with an adult or be in the care of an adult. Cost is $10/person which must be paid in advance at Strike!
I know it will be a busy but also a fun two weeks! Thanks to everyone who has volunteered their time to work show nights at the box office, concessions, dinner and in the dressing room. The show couldn't happen with out you!
