Reheasal Schedule for January


Updated January Rehearsal Schedule...

First, I want to thank everyone for working so hard to make this show fantastic! I'm really pleased to see the progress we've made on our lines, singing, and dancing. The show is looking really good. Because everything is going so well, I'm making some minor adjustments to our January schedule. Basically, the changes will be that I'm now hoping we can run through Act II twice on Wednesday and then skip the Friday rehearsal completely. Also, I'm planning that we can skip the morning rehearsal on Saturday, and just do an afternoon rehearsal that day. So, the following UPDATED JANUARY REHEARSAL SCHEDULE reflects those changes:

Tuesday, January 6th at 4:30 pm
Run Act One of the play. FULL CAST needs to attend this rehearsal (with the exception of the chefs and Carlotta who have no scenes on Act One).

Wednesday, January 7th at 4:15 pm
Chefs need to arrive at 4:15 pm to run their scene. FULL CAST can arrive at 4:30 pm. We will run TWICE through all of Act Two. Sea creatures will need to stay for the entire first run through, but they can leave after Kiss the Girl in the second run through. As long as we are able to get through it twice, we won't have to rehearse on Friday, January 9th.

Thursday, January 8th at 4:30 pm
Run Act One of the play. FULL CAST needs to attend this rehearsal (with the exception of the chefs and Carlotta who have no scenes in Act One).

Friday, January 9th.  AS LONG AS WE ARE ABLE TO RUN THROUGH ACT TWO TWICE ON WEDNESDAY, THERE WILL BE NO REHEARSAL ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 9TH. IF THIS IS TO CHANGE, I WILL ANNOUNCE IT ON WEDNESDAY AT THE REHEARSAL AND UPDATE IT ON THE BLOG WEDNESDAY EVENING. IF BY FRIDAY YOU ARE STILL SEEING THIS NOTICE, THEN CONSIDER THAT THERE IS NO REHEARSAL FOR FRIDAY.

Saturday, January 10th at 1:00 pm. We were going to do a morning and an afternoon rehearsal, but because everything looks so good, I am now planning JUST AN AFTERNOON rehearsal. Meet at 1:00 pm, and we will run through the entire show including the bows (we've never rehearsed those before--this will be the first time doing the bows, so please plan that you'll need to stick around for the entire rehearsal to practice bows at the very end.) Core cast should be in costumes (if they are available). If you are not core cast, you will not be in costume. Doors will open at 12:30 pm to allow the core cast to get into costume. Full cast should arrive at 1:00 pm. I want to be ready to start the show at 1:10 pm.

Monday, January 12th at 4:30 pm.  CORE CAST ONLY: SPEED-THROUGH.

Tuesday, January 13th at 4:30 pm
Fine tuning the choreography on Under the Sea and Kiss the Girl; if you are not involved in either of those numbers, you do not have to attend this rehearsal.

Wednesday, January 14th at 4:30 pm
Full run through with the FULL CAST.

Thursday, January 15th at 4:30 pm
Full run through with the FULL CAST.

Saturday, January 17th at 10:00 am
This is our last rehearsal before beginning our dress rehearsals. FULL CAST will run through the play at least once during the morning. If needed, FULL CAST will meet again in the afternoon to run through it again. If the afternoon rehearsal is not needed, I will announce that at the morning rehearsal.

Tuesday, January 20th at 6:00 pm
