TODAY'S 12.16.2014 Shrek Rehearsal Cast and Crew Cancelled


Shrek Jr rehearsal is cancelled this afternoon due to many in our called scenes today being out sick, myself (Ms. Kendrick) included!  The scenes that were called for today will be added into January rehearsals and will be updated on the blog to reflect these and all changes.


Thursday rehearsal will just be for  scene 5 (the Fionas) from 4pm to 5pm. This rehearsal has been shortened by 30 minutes.  There will be no Hallelujah rehearsal on Thursday.


Crew does not need to report this week. Stay healthy!


Wishing everyone the brightest of Chanukahs and warmest wishes for a Happy New Year!

MS Rehearsal Schedule & Scene Breakdown

The Full Middle School  Rehearsal Schedule is here! Please click under Shrek Calendar to download the PDF Schedule.

All dates will also be added to the Shrek Google Calendar which allows those who use Google Calendar to view by date or add to your calendar.

Please note that often as we get closer to show dates, the MS schedule is subject to change.  Slight modifications, additions, deletions, and/or changes in which characters attend and/or duration of any given rehearsal may be made due to weather, progression of rehearsals and the needs of the shows.

Changes or modifications in the schedule will be communicated at least one full week ahead of time.

Rehearsals are called by characters or by scenes. Please refer to the MS Scene breakdown to see in which scene numbers your character(s) appear.

The Hallelujah girls ensemble, the Duloc Performers, the Dreamgirls, and the Boy Band will be announced post the next all cast Tues rehearsal and before winter break.

Remember rehearsals begin at 4pm SHARP and that from  3:35- 4:00, you should eat your snack, check in with any tutorials/teachers/HW help, pack up your belongings,  use the restroom, and dress out for rehearsal.

When you are not working on your scenes/songs/dances in rehearsals, you are expected to work on HW.

Always bring the following to your rehearsals:

  • your script
  • water bottle
  • highlighter
  • pencil
  • notepad/computer for taking notes
  • comfortable rehearsal clothes
  • phone (to ensure your carpool ride knows what time pick up is and to record harmonies)
  • a FABULOUS attitude :) 


See you all Tuesday!

UPDATE ON MIDDLE SCHOOL SCHEDULE:
The  full schedule is almost ready. We have been working hard on it to maximize our time together and minimize down time by creating a very specific scene/character rehearsal/blocking schedule- no easy feat when trying to organize 33 characters,  65+ individual schedules. 

The full schedule WILL indeed be released in the next few days. 

Thank you all for your patience as we work hard to make sure the full MS schedule works for all 
parties involved and with so many events to work around in and out of school! 

Please remember  that all of the SUNDAY rehearsals were released in the MS audition info packet. Those dates are all still the same, there are no changes to any Sundays.

THERE ARE NO SUNDAY REHEARSALS ON MLK or PRESIDENTS DAY WEEKENDS.
