Wiz Schedule thru Dec. 31st

Wiz Schedule Through Dec. 31

Hello, Cast and Families,
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. I know there are a lot of family activities and trips that happen around this holiday time.  I scheduled rehearsals because the kids are out of school and it is a great opportunity to get some scene work and dances completed.  So, if the kids are in town next week, please do what you can to make these rehearsals.
Also, we have a lot of projects that need to be done and will be available for you to take home or you can work on them during rehearsal at the church.  They will be ready and waiting to be completed.
Tuition:  In the past, Beth has been very good about sending statements and keeping track of what each family still owes.  This show, however, she has been much busier with work and hasn’t had the time to devote to this project.  However, we still need tuition payments.  I will, in the next week, figure out who owes what.  If you have any questions please contact me after Jan. 1.
Costumes:  I will need to start fitting costumes right after the first of the year, and really need some help with this project.  Many of the costumes are already being constructed, but I will need to start putting the entire costume together, and the best time to do this is during rehearsals.  That is why I need someone to help.  Please let me know if you can work with me on this project.
Tickets are available through us, JAKS and at the box office.  Please, please, please, please, sell at least 20 tickets per family- and many many more- start now!!  BUY TICKETS FOR CHRISTMAS PRESENTS!!!!
