Scrambling.......

Hello again everyone.... I would like to ask for a bit of help..... We've had one (more) person back out of being in the play, so I'm scrambling to fill his parts.  Most of them, I've been able to cover, but there are still a few parts (kids and adults) that need filling.  Some have been or will be soon asked, but not knowing what the answers will be, here are the roles that need filled (they are not big parts at all):

Maria (Sound of Music)
   Young adult

Friedrich (Sound of Music)
    Boy, about 13 years old

Augustus Gloop (Willy Wonka and the Choc. Factory)
   Boy, about 10 years old, plus or minus

Also from Willy Wonka:
   Mr. Beauregard (one line)
   Grandpa Joe (three lines)

Tessie (from Annie)
   Girl, any age from 8 - 12 or so  (three lines)


That's it... if you know anyone who fits these descriptions and would want to take these parts, please please ask them and let me know as soon as you can so I can finalize everything!  Four weeks to go till show time!!

Thank you!!
P.S. The play is set for Sept. 30th at 6 pm, and practices are Sundays 12:30 - 2 pm, with one Saturday practice on the 29th at 6 pm.
Thanks again,
  somewhat stressed director......

Wow!

Well,  Yesterday's practice went great!! We got through 90% of the acts, and had time to enjoy a banana split party to celebrate the end of summer!  Keep up the GREAT work, everyone!  Enjoy labor day weekend!!  And keep on memorizing - we're shooting for NO MORE SCRIPTS when we get back together on Sept. 9th.  (No practice this Sunday)

I'm SO proud of all you young actors!!!

 

 

Getting ready for costumes....

Hello there all you moms!! I just want to start this post by saying that everyone who was at rehearsal on Tuesday (Hope, Lukas, Lauren, Brooklyn, and Lindsey)  did really well!  (Despite being a tad hyper.)  Great job, all of you!  Keep up the good work!

Now, I would like to ask for a tiny bit of help getting ready for costumes.  Would you please be so kind as to provide me with a few basic measurements of your kid(s) who are participating in this play?
I just need ~~~

Height
Waist
Inseam

If you could send me an email (elliesauntie96@yahoo.com)  and provide me with this info, that would be a great help!  Thank you!  

Tia

Practice, practice, practice..........

We're all getting back into the swing of things for the next play!
Juggling around summer vacations and all of the fun going on!  :)

I've given the kids a challenge to help them think about their scripts during the week, and not just looking at them during rehearsals:  Try to spend 10 minutes every day going over your lines (and don't forget about your cues!).  We have 7 rehearsals left, maybe 8, if we need an extra one, so let's all start memorizing, piece by piece!

I hope the kids all had fun at Sunday's rehearsal! (Despite my minor injury - yeah)  ha ha - We got a lot done and I could really sense the enthusiasm!!  Great job all of you!! I'm so glad to be a part of this with all of you fantastic kids!!! See you again soon!!
