CAST:


Act One had a few rough spots here and there but Act Two was pretty solid.  Remember that each audience deserves the same quality show that our other audiences have seen so please make it a priority to rehearse your lines, music and choreography if there are areas where you struggle.  I appreciate those of you who are doing that!!


As a general note for "Keep on Rollin", can the four of you please talk through the head turns in that number when you are sitting/standing/bouncing near your suitcases.  We had only one instance where two of you looked left and the other two looked straight ahead.  Please work that prior to the show on Friday.  Thank you!


Big THANK YOU to those of you who did trash duty when asked last night since was an added show and not on the schedule!!  You all are awesome!!


CREW:


Great job!!

DIRECTOR:  

SM/ASM:        

COSTUMES:

  • Boyce's tux pants need to have panel added in crotch area due to numerous quick fixes on seams that are ripping apart. The extra pair do not fit.  Talked with Craig on Sunday and another fix is to take a regular pair of black pants and attach something to each side seam to make them look like tux pants.  Either option works.


PROPS:


  • Thank you Chris for fixing the suitcase!

SOUND:

  • Mic feedback issue in Stand By Me due to not lowering mic volume from previous song.  Aware of what needs to be done and will be corrected for next show.

RANDOM FACT:


"The Hully Gully is a type of unstructured line dance often considered to have originated in the sixties, but is also mentioned some forty years earlier as a dance common in the black juke joints in the first part of the twentieth century. In its modern form it consisted of a series of "steps" that are called out by the MC. Each step was relatively simple and easy to execute; however, the challenge was to keep up with the speed of each step." - from definitions.net
