SHOW T-SHIRTS:  Deadline to order a t-shirt is Friday, June 24th - 4 DAYS AWAY

If you are interested in ordering a t-shirt for your vault, you can now do that.  The t-shirt will be a black shirt with the logo on front and cast/crew list on back.  Cost will be $20 per shirt.  We need at least 12 shirts ordered to ensure the price does not go up.   The sign-up sheet will be at rehearsals.  Cash or check please (checks made out to Georgetown Palace) and give that moola to Maria since she is the collector of t-shirt money. Money due by order deadline please.


CAST:


Such beautiful blending tonight from everyone.  It was great to have everyone together tonight!!  Thank you!


As we get closer to show opening, we need to spend a little extra time in rehearsal.  To that end, I need you each to email me please or tell me at rehearsal on Tuesday (6/21) if you are available to start at Noon on Saturday, June 25th instead of 1pm.  We have a lot to cover and need that time. If you already had told me about a conflict, you do not need to email me.

  • "BIG Suit for Pablo needs to have the Gold Buttons (Tweed one) - not sure if this belongs in Props or Costumes


PROPS:

Please see Bio instructions in Cast section.  Submit your bio no later than Wednesday, June 22nd.


Items we need (those that are a priority are highlighted) -

  • NEED DIFFERENT BOA FOR SURE - we had excessive shedding last night with Red Boas so cannot use our first idea - will need one that can stand up to the shaking and flicking on stage.  For rehearsal boa, is it possible to use the black one that Palace used for Gershwin show in fall?  Ask Jessie or Ron about this one if you are not familiar with it.  Bigger feathered boa would also solve problem we are having with weighting it down for the flicking in Don Juan (kept getting caught in chair).

  • Big Suit "shoulder thing" to be used in Shoppin For Clothes (need 3 for show)

  • "BIG Suit for Pablo needs to have the Gold Buttons (Tweed one) - not sure if this belongs in Props or Costumes


  • Electronic cigarette -will be ordering

  • Red Round cafe table (will not be covered) - will try pedestal table on Saturday

  • 8 - Cabaret chairs (painted red) - will paint red after Blonde closes

  • 1 - Black cafe chair (MUST BE STRONG ENOUGH TO STAND ON) - Still need

  • Deep Red, very long boa (needs to be about 20 feet long) - see note above

  • 4 - Song & Dance style hats ("Skimmer hats") - ordered

  • 1 - Sherlock Holmes hat

  • 4 - Round cafe tables (they will not be covered)


SOUND: Please see Bio instructions in Cast section.  Submit your bio no later than Wednesday, June 22nd.



LIGHTING/FX: Please see Bio instructions in Cast section.  Submit your bio no later than Wednesday, June 22nd.


  • Will use Shadow panel for 2 numbers: Trouble (A1) & Spanish Harlem (A2)

  • Will need lighting change in Shoppin For Clothes to show movement through department store floors when go to look at suits.


SET:


Modifications to set needed:


  • For the faux doors that will go on those stoops, can we drill holes in the landing so the faux doors can have dowels that fit into those to hold it in place?  Make for easy removal at end of scene - would be similar to step railings.


Furniture needed:

PAINT:

Please see Bio instructions in Cast section.  Submit your bio no later than Wednesday, June 22nd.


  • Lannie purchased materials for you and will be up at Palace by Wednesday - Need a mock-up of our neon sign idea using paracord and fluorescent paint by the end of next week to see if we can use that or need to create a projection of signs/marquees for On Broadway number.


  • One addition:  create 4 "Smokey Joe's Cafe" signs to be added to the music stands the band will be using on the platform.  Will provide more detail and dimensions on what this needs to be next week.
