On Sunday, April 13, we will have a short work call from 1:00 - 4:00 to build additional set pieces.
Rehearsals resume Monday, April 14 and will be held every afternoon from 3:30 until at least 8:00 and possibly later. Our most important day is Saturday, April 19. Our final work call and rehearsal begins at 9:00 and will end that evening hopefully by 6:00. However, you should not make any plans for Saturday evening as technical rehearsals tend to run long.
Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to feed us! Keep checking your email for updates and requests.
Thank you to everyone who turned up for the work day on Saturday. We got a tremendous amount accomplished. We have also had several really productive days working on choreography. This is our last week before spring break. Rehearsal is Monday through Thursday from 3:30 - 8:00.
