WELCOME BACK FROM BREAK!
Pick-ups should be from the front of the high school starting tomorrow, April 15th, for the remaining weeks of play rehearsal.
I hope that everyone enjoyed the break, wherever and whatever you did. I worked Saturday through Thursday on the set at the high school with a group of dedicated high school helpers, my son, and his best friend. I am very thankful to Debbi and Tom Franklin for transporting lumber and gifted trees from Plainfield earlier in the week. I couldn't have accomplished as much without the help. It is all much appreciated!
Looking ahead, our daily schedule is 3 - 5 PM (plus or minus a couple minutes and specifications) at the high school auditorium. This week's schedule is below:
Monday, 4/15 3 - 5
Tuesday, 4/16 NO REHEARSAL (Early Release Day)
Wednesday, 4/17, 3 - 5:15 PM, 4 - 5:15 PM Munchkin costume parade (this is so the kids know, you as parents just need to know that if your child is a munchkin, they will held until 5:15 PM and the others non-munchkin rolls can be collected at 5 PM.
Thursday, 4/18 3 - 5 PM
Friday, 4/19 3 - 5 PM
Unless we have spoken and I know of conflicts, these rehearsals are ALL CAST going forward.
The Stage Crew does not have to be at rehearsal until April 26, after which they should plan to be present daily from 3 to 5 PM except May 3, when we will run tech and hold stage crew until 7:30 PM, with a half-hour dinner break from 5 to 5:30 PM.
The T-shirts are in and will be handed out ASAP.
Costuming - ALL CAST will need skin-colored undergarments (body suits, thin-strapped tank tops for bike shorts, whatever they are comfortable in, but they will be wearing these things under their costume, which is provided the undergarments are the responsibility of the individual student and their family. Boys in the cast should have clean white shirts to wear under their costumes, which helps soak up the sweat, etc. Questions about costuming should be directed to Leslie Rench (renchl@hartfordschools.net)
SHOES - The cast, except for Dorothy, Glinda The Wicked Witch, and Aunt Em, should purchase a pair of these shoes:
or
Glinda, Wicked Witch, Aunt Em - Character Shoe
Dorothy - You need a Jazz Shoe - we will provide the RUBY SLIPPERS
Wicked Witch - Jazz Boots
Scarecrow, Lion, TinMan, Oz—You need Jazz shoes, but hopefully, there will be boots or something appropriate for the farm.
Lastly, reiterating here, there is NO rehearsal on Tuesday this week. Please check the website daily as things can change based on need for the next two weeks.
Thanks so much, Kristen/Ms. Chapman
