Dear Friends,
I would like you to take a moment and read this post
slowly and understand the magnitude of tonight’s performance.
Tonight, the Jenkintown community and beyond, will witness a
group of individuals who have come together to create a theatrical piece that
is top notch. Your set is intense, your
costumes fabulous! You have come so far,
as have I. You have raised the bar of excellence…and
have met that bar head-on.
You have worked so many hours, you have cared so much to
bring Neil Simon’s Rumors to
fruition.
Take a moment or two to bask in the sun, to let it all sink
in. This is a wonderful moment….savor
it!!
Tonight, you all must be the consummate professionals.
You must take care of your props, your food items, your cloths, your
lines, and your commitment to one another.
I remind you, if you
alter any lines, add anything we did not rehearse, if you do not act
with the utmost respect to all the time and effort that we put into this piece,
I will not only be disappointed in you, but you will have let your entire cast
down.
If someone chooses to act inappropriately while on or off
stage, the spring drama will not continue
next year.
Tonight…everyone must arrive by 5:30 p.m. Please sign in!!
We will meet in the choral
room at 7:20 p.m.
Oonagh, Sara, Mimi, Cameryn, Harley and I will be selling tickets
and standing at the doors to welcome your audience.
Crew must dress in black!
Stephen and Ryan will start the music at 6:45 p.m. at that
point the “house” will be open.
I suggest you pre-set the minute you enter the school
tonight.
Below is a list of items each cast member needs to bring for
all three performances. These items are
crucial to our show.
Please remember
that EVERYONE needs to be at school Sunday at 11:45 p.m. to help break down the
set.
Items to bring:
Dan: 3 Limes
Evan: 3 Lemmons
Cailyn: Ice for each performance
Patrick: Pretzels for each performance (we may have two
already)
Jess C.: Lemon squares, brownies…whatever…for the last scene
of the play
Olivia: 4 small apple juice bottles.
Jess M.: 3 Pens for the law to use instead of pencils
Rory: 3 small bottles
or cans of sprite or seven-up.
We still need an APRON for Cookie.
You all
need to bring in $15 for your shirts.
Remember:
No
clapping for one another during curtain calls…please polish up your bows.
This
is the last thing the audience sees. The
bows need to be quick, concise, clean!!
Be professional.
Are you all going out tomorrow night?
Is there a cast party?
You should
celebrate your accomplishments together.
Without
one another, this show would not be where it is today.
Bravo to you all.
I am
very proud of you.
Lys
