Cast Party

Cast Party...Saturday, June 1st @ 2:30pm...Stake Park

 

Everyone bring a snack/treat/dessert to share.  We will provide some kind of liquid refreshment.  

 

The plan is to just hang out and visit...and possibly some "awards" will be given. 

 

We will not do a slide show at this time but will have another get-together at the end of the summer/first of fall to do that (gotta give me some time to go thru the thousands of pictures and put it all together for all of you).

 

Love you all...see you in a few weeks!  I miss you already!

Teen Boys Update

**UPDATE for the TEEN BOYS**

Talking to several boys last night, there are still several of you who need basic accessories---so I rounded up a few more suspenders, vests, hats and bow ties to borrow; I will have them to check out tonight.  If possible, wear your whole outfit (even if you've already shown me pieces) so we can match your accessories accurately and not be scrambling on Saturday & Monday to outfit you before the show.  

I also went and bought a few items, if you want to purchase them from me instead of picking through the borrowed odds and ends or going to a store to buy your own.  
I have:

• 5 pair of black suspenders -$6 ea
• 10 pair of white suspenders -$6 (you all have to have these for Shapoopi but not to wear the rest of the show)
• misc Bow Ties -$10 (if you want to keep them after the show)
• 2 black & brown hats -$3 ea

Thanks,
Annette

Boys Band Update

**UPDATE** Boys Band--

The boys band dressing room will be where we store your costumes and where you will change.  The Green Room (Primary Room) is where all cast members will wait until they are needed on stage.  All boys need to understand that you will be changing together in the same room; if you are uncomfortable with that then either wear a pair of tight shorts under your pants or bring a blanket you can have someone hold up to dress behind.  I don't want the band uniform pieces to be taken out of the dressing room to be changed into in the bathrooms. 

I will have a small bin for each of the boys with their pant & hat in it which can be used to store their other accessories when they are not using them.  They will have to have their own white button down shirt (most of you are wearing them for your costume anyway).  Once you have removed all your basic costume pieces and put on your band pants and hat, you will then come to me and get your jackets which will be hung on the coat rack just outside your dressing room. 

After the show, come directly back to the dressing room, give me your jacket and place your hat & pants back in your marked bin.  Bring me your full bin to get a going home goodie each night!  

Any questions?

Costume Care/Lost and Found

Costume Care/ Lost and Found--

I gathered up several lost costume pieces after practice. With over 100 people in our play, keeping track of everyone's costume pieces is going to be a NIGHTMARE if I don't have all of your help. If you have signed out a costume that means you are now responsible for that costume, keeping all the pieces together, keeping it clean and looking stage ready, until you turn it in at the end of our run of performances. We do not have the time, patience or budget to make or replace lost or ruined costumes.

Several of the pieces we have rented or borrowed from generous donors that have asked us NOT to wash the items (some we will be responsible to dry clean). This means that if you have a rented or borrowed costume, you need to wear it only when necessary so it will not need cleaning before the shows--especially the kids, we do not need to see them in costume every night until official dress rehearsals. DO NOT EAT in your costumes. DO NOT take them off for a costume change and leave them in a crumpled pile on the floor. DO NOT ROLL on the ground or run around playing in your costumes (yeah, I'm talking to you Pickalittles) or they are just going to look thrashed by our first show next week.

I suggest that everyone get a tote, box or bin of some kind to keep your extra pieces in. Your container needs to be labeled along with ALL your costume pieces labeled (use masking tape for borrowed pieces so there is no permanent marking). During practices, you can use the Primary & Relief Society rooms to store your items if they are not being used; we will have official designated dressing rooms next week.  While you are not wearing your costumes, keep them hung up nicely so they don't have to be repeatedly steamed or pressed (which will eventually melt the hot glue I constructed them with --haha, just kidding- kind of :).

Please DO NOT mess with other people's stuff--if it's not yours don't touch it --. Please don't leave valuables unattended -keep them in the trunk of your car (where they can't be seen) or at home if you don't absolutely have to bring it.
Thanks for all your help with this!
