MS CAST: Please be mindful that the schedule is still subject to change as to what character(s) are called or duration of rehearsal time over the next several weeks and months as sometimes a scene is blocked more quickly than expected and sometimes a dance number takes much longer to teach and learn than expected. We will ALWAYS attempt to try and give two weeks' notice or more to ANY changes in the MS rehearsal schedule. You will never receive a change in the week of that modified practice.

I will be adding our missed rehearsal from Tuesday to the following week's schedule. The changes will be posted on Sunday.
