No Rehearsals or Work Parties During Spring Break

There will be no rehearsals or work parties during Spring break, but if you want to rehearse with Chrisse you can make an appointment to practice with her at chrisseroccaro@gmail.com.

Everyone should have gone home with a CD with all the music for Company on it, but I also sent out an email with the tracks on them.
I also sent the music for Side By Side to everybody. Just download the songs then add them to iTunes.

Rehearsals begin Monday, March 5^th 3:30 – 6:30. See you all there.

Thank you to all who auditioned! I was thrilled to have such a talented pool of people. You truly made our decision very difficult. I would have cast you all if I could have.

I encourage you all to keep on auditioning.

If you are interested in being involved as a crew member we will start having some crew interviews on Wednesday during Flex.

                                                      - Meredith, Jim, and Chrisse

Cast List Posted Sunday

I will be holding off on posting the cast list until Sunday. 

Check back then. 

You all have been wonderful to work with this week. Enjoy your weekend. Go and see Wavemakers if you haven't yet already. 

Rehearsals do begin on Monday so keep that time open. 

Thanks! Meredith

Info for those attending callbacks

To all those attending callbacks:

It is important to attend every rehearsal

Give us all of your conflicts now so it is possible to schedule around them

Break-out schedules will be given before each week and you must be ok with the fact that you wont know exactly when you are called for rehearsal until then. ASSUME YOU WILL HAVE TO BE HERE THE WHOLE TIME EVERY DAY.

 You must be able and willing to work as an ensemble cast and work well with Chrisse, Jim, and myself

If you are not willing to accept any role (including a non-speaking ensemble role) please let us know so that we can take that into consideration.

We will not be holding rehearsals over spring break but need you to be here until just before and just after. Individual rehearsals might be an option during that time. (Just because there is a break does not mean you can stop working on or thinking about the show)

You must be willing to help build and promote the show.

We are also looking for parent involvement to help get this show on its feet and to help run performances.

The 2 weeks before we open are sacred. We will need all performers and crew here for every day, the whole time during these runs.

If you have any concerns or questions please come and talk to us afterwards.

All who need to leave early please let Lili and Margot know now.
