"Only YOU Can Control YOUR Future!" - Dr. Seuss

I like this quote! Not to get all philosophical tonight...but we are down to crunch time. The work that we put in over the next two weeks is going to determine the quality of the show.

I already know it is going to be good...but it has the potential to be more than absolutely *****GREAT*****! ;) I've given a lot of motivational speeches over the last few rehearsals. I believe in these kiddos, and I know they can do it. And, you should be proud. There is a TON of material and a HUGE amount of responsibility to do a "Jr." show. Keep pushing them towards excellence and letting them know you believe in them! We're heading towards the finish line.

Please encourage your kiddos to be off book by tomorrow's rehearsal. They've been asked to know all of their lines and songs by the time I see them tomorrow. Again, big challenges = big results! :)

I've also asked them to continue to work on their characters. EVERY character in the show is important and needs to be fully developed in their emotions and movements!

If you have any items that you haven't turned in - BIO, Character Worksheet, etc. This is your final, final, final, last call. Please get them to me tomorrow.

Many of you have asked what you can do to help...and we need you! Our big push this weekend is SETS! Megan Wendall and her team will be working at all three rehearsals this weekend. Join the fun! If you can stay, see me and I will point you in the right direction. I know our Costume and Props Teams may also need a bit of help, so, please, if you have some time to spare, stop in and we'll put you to work. You don't need experience -- just a smile!

Also, if anyone is interested with helping plan our cast party, please see me, too!

WE ARE ALL CALL FOR ALL REHEARSALS THIS WEEKEND! We will see EVERYONE:
6:30-8:00 on Friday
1:00-3:00 on Saturday
2:00-4:00 on Sunday

Finally, the head shots went wonderfully on Saturday. Many of you purchased them. For those of you who didn't purchase, and for those who did who would like a preview, please visit:

SEE YOU TOMORROW!
