Rehearsals this Week
Optional Musical Numbers- ensemble members can decide to be part of a musical number or not. It's totally up to you. If you decide to be in an optional musical number, please be there for all the rehearsals. Monday- January 13
Costume Measurements Form Every cast member needs to complete this Costume Measurements Form by January 21st so we can start getting costumes together. You will need either a measuring tape or a piece of string to get your student's measurements. Costumes Parents, we will be giving you more detailed information about costumes after we have met this week, but to get us started we are looking for some costumes so please look at Costumes Needed for The Drowsy Chaperone, especially if you child is a reporter so you can see pictures of what we need. Musical Committees Emails are going out about committees so if you signed up to be on a committee, please check your email. We are meeting this week to discuss costumes, set, Stargrams, and gifts. There are still some openings so please be sure to sign up, if you have yet to select a committee. Musical T-Shirts Mrs. Whiting is over T-shirts and could use some help. If any of you could sign up on our SignUpGenius that would be great so we can get these shirts done and out to the cast ASAP. Thank you! Rehearsals this week
Rehearsals are now going to be an hour and a half. Wednesday- January 8
January Calendar We were so completely swamped with the end of the term and all the December school events/activities that we were unable to get the paper copy of the January calendar out to students as promised. We do apologize for the delay. That will happen this week. Thanks for your patience. Rehearsals this week
Monday- December 16
Winter Assembly The Winter Assembly is Friday, December 20th from 11-12:30pm. We don't have a specific costume for this optional performance mainly because so many of our performers are already performing with other groups for the assembly. Students are welcome to wear what they wore to school that day. It's Ugly Sweater day so they're welcome to wear those. January Rehearsals From October to December our admin instructed us to keep rehearsals minimal. We've done our best to do that. If your student has expressed that they feel like they aren't doing much in the musical, this is why. Starting in January, we really get going with rehearsals. January rehearsals will go till 4:30pm. If your student is participating in the Granite Junior Youth Symphony, please talk to/email Ms. Emily so she can make that note. January rehearsal calendars will be out in the hall later this week. Off Book Day January 21st is Off Book Day- meaning students are no longer allowed to bring scripts onstage. Please be sure to work on memorization over the break. Have a fantastic Winter Break!

December Calendar A paper copy of the December rehearsal calendar has been placed in the hallway across from the theatre room. Please be sure to pick one up. Winter Assembly Fancy Dress Performance All cast members are invited to participate in this optional performance opportunity. We'll be performing Fancy Dress at the Winter Assembly on December 20th. We have placed 4 rehearsals on the calendar since this is a 5 minute song (we may or may not need all of them- we'll keep you updated). Please be sure to practice and memorize the song at home. Again this is completely optional for all cast members. Happy Thanksgiving! No rehearsals this week since so many students are gone celebrating with family.
Please be sure to keep practicing at home all the dances and music that has been taught. Winter Assembly We've been asked to perform a number for the Winter Assembly which is December 20th. We'll be performing Fancy Dress- the big opening number with all the cast. Please note, this is a completely optional performance opportunity for our students. In order to prepare for this, we'll need to add some rehearsal time to our calendar in December. We'll finalize what that will look like this week so you can decide if the assembly performance is something you want to participate in or not. Rehearsals this week
Monday- November 18
Cast Fee Update The $60 cast fee has now been charged to student's accounts. You can pay it in Focus or you may also call Ms. Flanagan and pay over the phone. Thanks for your patience in getting this set up! Rehearsals This Week Thursday- November 14
Verify T-shirt Size Form In the parent meeting we said we'd create a form for you to verify your student's t-shirt size before we get them ordered. Here is the T-shirt Size Form. If you feel confident in the size your student put on the audition form, there's no need to fill it out. This form will close this Friday, November 15th. Parent Meeting Video For those who missed the Parent Meeting Night, we have a video recording that discusses all the things we discussed in the meeting. Please note, we're re-using the video we used from last year. There are just some minor changes. We also have all updated information listed in this document. Performances for double-casted roles At rehearsal this week we had our Mrs. Tottendale's draw out which night each cast is performing. This is just for those who received a role that has been double cast to know when they will perform their part. Everyone is expected to perform all 6 performances. Double-casted cast members will spend their off nights performing in the ensemble.

Everyone needs to come to rehearsal on Wednesday and Thursday. We are learning the choreography for Fancy Dress. Please remember to fill out the attendance google form if your student is sick, unable to attend or leaving early. Monday, 11/4
Choreography Videos Choreography videos will be posted for students to practice with at home. Students can find the Choreography videos and Music to practice with under the Musical menu item. Cast Fee Update The cast fee will be charged to your student's account sometime next week. Thanks for your patience as our front office staff has been extremely busy this year. Thank you to all those who came to the Parent Meeting last Wednesday! If you were unable to come, we'll be putting together a video for you to watch. We're hoping to get that sent out this week.
Musical SignUpGenius Putting on a musical takes a community. We ask that each student has one family member (can be parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle or older sibling) contribute 4 hours of time for the musical. We have created a Drowsy Chaperone SignUpGenius to sign up for volunteer opportunities. Please note: there are some things that need to be fixed on the SignUpGenius. There is no Matinee performance or a performance on March 9th. Also the double dress rehearsal day is on a Thursday. Our teachers have meetings and are unable to do a dress rehearsal on a Friday. Leaving Early & Absences If your student needs to leave rehearsal early or is going to miss a rehearsal, please be sure to fill out the Drowsy Chaperone Attendance Form. This helps us know how to best help your student and save them spots in the dances. Remember, students are only allowed 3 unexcused absences. Students should learn what they missed from another cast member. We're willing to answer questions, but we unfortunately don't have time to re-teach music & dances to individual cast members. If you've planned a special surprise trip, please let us know about that ASAP by email or via the form. Drowsy Chaperone Music The music to practice with at home will all be posted on the Music page under Musical on the website. The first song posted is "Fancy Dress". Students are to be working on learning that song. Ms. Emily is working on creating another music file where the bottom part is played along with the music. Rehearsal this week The only ensemble group called this week is the Wedding Guests. 10/28 Monday 3-4pm
November paper calendars will be out in the hallway by Ms. Dallimore's room on Wednesday. Be sure to pick one up! |
