TECH WEEK - PART 1!!!!

The time has come...the show is almost here...but first...TECH WEEK! AHHHHHHHH!!!!

Here we go with some information you need to know:

1. TOMORROW NIGHT: We will be moving items (props, set pieces, costumes, etc.) from The Biz to Harmony. Please drop off your cast member when rehearsal starts at 5:30pm, and - if you are willing to stay and help - find me to get instructions and head over to The Biz to pick up a load of goodies.

We will also need a few dads to stay and help at the start of tomorrow's rehearsal. We have several jobs requiring strong people. Find me and I will direct you to Jeremy Roehm.

Thank you in advance for your help! It takes all of us to make it happen. :)

3. PROMOTE THE SHOW/GET YOUR TICKETS: Please share information about the show with your friends and family...and share the good news about what we are doing on social media! Purchase tickets online here: http://thebiz-academy.com/upcomingproductions/seussical-jr/

Jan will also be at the beginning and end of every rehearsal this week. You can purchase tickets directly from her, too!

4. VOLUNTEERS: I currently do not have any volunteer parents assigned to backstage jobs for the shows. I am kindly asking for volunteers. We will need 5 parent volunteers backstage for every show. 2 parents will be helping monitor kiddos, The other 3 parents will be helping with costumes, final touches on hair/makeup/helping with other tech duties.

If you are able - or are on one of the teams and were planning - to volunteer backstage, please send me a message (thebizdoesseuss@gmail.com). Please let me know if you would like to work with: monitoring or costumes and what show night you would like to volunteer. THANK YOU in advance. I will get back to you once I have a final list. YOU ARE APPRECIATED.

5. KEEP PRACTICING! Today was a bit of a mess as we all seem to have had quite a few brain farts. It is going to be a LONG week. So remind your kiddo to get lots of rest, stay hydrated and keep reviewing their materials. It's never too late to practice. I remind them always that I am SO PROUD of all of them...and I think they are amazing. I also share with them that I have high expectations...and I KNOW they can do it!

This is all for tonight. Another post coming in the morning...updates will be fast and furious this week! :)
