Everyone!!! Even if you didn't come to the rehearsal Saturday.
I need everyone in How To Succeed to perform Brotherhood of Man with us, if you are in town, on Saturday night.  Please invite friends and family- it will really help us out. 
Also, Natalie, Miranda, and Kali, you are planning to do the show, right?
Phillip and Cody, would you mind sharing some of the MC duties, and make sure Devin is there (at the reherasal too)
There will be a last minute rehearsal on Saturday morning at 9:00 and you need to be at the Ed Kenley (in Layton Park) at 6:00

H2S July 8th Updates

Hi Cast,

Plan on rehearsal on Monday July 9, at 1:00, and another day next week.  Also, we will rehearse on Saturday.  I need you to send me any schedule conflicts that we may need to work around.  I am especially interested in Daniel and Cody. We need to teach the new parts in Secretary is not a Toy (everyone is involved in this dance-except James) and we need everyone there.  Also, we will run the show as often as we can from now until tech week. 

Saturday afternoon, I plan to have a "benefit" rehearsal.  We need to get those numbers up to speed.  And we need as many of you as we can get including alumni cast.

Also, we are still looking for a cast for our workshop.  Performances on August 2 and 3.  Please come and join us, we need you.  Performance Dance 10:00-1:00 Mon-Thurs.

Thanks.  Jill

Hi, Cast.  I was talking to some of the dancers at rehearsal on Saturday and we came up with a couple of rehearsal dates and times for Secretary is not a toy.  If you are on the list please do what you can to make these two rehearsals, sorry about the late notice.  I only need the following people:
Belle, Abby, Hannah L, Sammy

Everyone is in this number but we're going to try to work out a "Lindy" routine, so we don't need everyone there.

JAKS Summer workshop starts tomorrow, Monday, and I really hope some of you plan to join us.  It will be fun and there's a lot of good music.  10:00-1:00-Performance Dance Mon-Thurs

Cody, who is playing Frump will be back in town around the 9th of July.  Plan to start rehearsing a lot more after he returns, and please plan to be at rehearsals.  Now it's just one month away and it's time to really work. 
Tickets will go on sale around the 8th of July.  Cast A will Open and close (Thursday and Saturday night)
Cast B will do the Friday night and Saturday Matinee shows.  Bailey and Windy will switch, Bailey will do Thursday and Friday and Windy will do Saturday matinee and Saturday night. Brotherhood of Man will be: Bailey, Thursday, Abby, Friday, Sammy-Saturday Matinee, Miranda-Saturday night. Please plan to get at least 20 family and friends to buy tickets-more would be better.  Thanks.  I am really excited.  This will be a really great show.  Jill
