Dress Rehearsal Notes
If you have a script or vocal book - there is a BOX under the sign-in sheet. Drop it in !! This is very important to remember, you will be charged for it if not returned.
There are t-shirts still for sale, see me.
Have you ever worked with Lisa Hulber??? She is the local lighting technical lady with blonde hair? Very sweet and funny! She is sick - with cancer - so in addition to the thoughts and prayers we have been sending her way, there will be a Big card for you to sign (by the sign-in sheet). We are going to send it to her as a cast.
I know Lee has been leaving y'all notes . . . here's mine . . . stop fidgeting with your costumes while on stage. (don't fix your shirt, pull up your pants,etc.). And HAVE FUN!!!!!
Break a leg everybody!!
