February 22nd and 24th

It seems like it's been a while since we have had two rehearsals in one week.  I am excited to have a couple of days to get a lot done.  This week we're going to have smaller groups coming to learn new dances and blocking and review what we have learned so far so we can fine tune.  We are almost half way through the show and it's looking good.
Monday, February 22nd
Caterpillars and Small Alice:
You are going to be working on Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah choreography.
Tweedles
You will be practicing How D'Ye Do and Shake Hands
All Cards
I know this is going to seem pretty inconvenient for some of you, but I am only going to need the cards to come for about 20-30 minutes on Monday.  We have rented about 20 costumes from Thunder Ridge for the cards and many of them are a bit too long for our students.  On Monday I have a few parents who have volunteered to come to try costumes on kids and start altering costumes and working on the remaining 30 costumes that need to be sewn.  Consequently, all we need your child for on Monday is to try a costume on.  If your child is a B tracker, they will probably just be walking home a little later than normal.  If your child is an A tracker, I am sorry that you will have to bring them back for a minute and then take them back home.  Please feel free to stay and wait a few minutes.  We will be as quick as possible.
