January 13th & 15th

We had a great first week of rehearsals.  The vocal rehearsals went fabulously and I am so impressed with he talent we have this year.
First of all, I wanted to clarify a couple of things.  At the parent meeting I mentioned that there will be times that the calendar doesn't match what the emails say.  We will try and get as many kids working at as many things simultaneously at each rehearsal.  The calendar will indicate the new material we will be learning/working on, and the email will give a more specific outline of everything that will be worked on.  Please, always refer to the email.  I am sorry for the confusion last week with the conflicting messages.
Here is the plan for this week.
Monday, January 13th
4:00-4:45- Lead Vocal Rehearsal- For this part of the rehearsal I need Aladdin, Jasemine, Babkak, Omar, Kassim, Manal, Isir, Rajah.  We will be working on solo vocals
5:00-6:30- I need the entire cast for this part of the rehearsal.  This means that any and all cast members not mentioned above need to come ONLY from 5:00-6:30.  During this time we will be having ensemble vocal rehearsals.  We will also be blocking the second half of the show, and pulling leads from the vocals to work on each scene.
Wednesday, January 15th 
3:45-5:30- Vocal/Blocking . We will be using Wednesday to finish up blocking and more vocal rehearsals.  I will need the entire cast to come for this entire rehearsal. 
If your child hasn't turned in their disclosure document/sizes and student contract, please make sure they bring it this week.  Also, it is important that cast members bring their scripts/song books to each rehearsal. 
Lastly,  many of you have signed your littles up for the choir.  We are excited to get started with the choir, and that will begin the first Wednesday of February.  I will be sending out a choir calendar in the next couple of days.
Thanks for your support!
