STAR WALL
We are once again going to be creating a STAR WALL to feature our amazing young thespians. By Sunday, March 6th, please send in a 4x6, 5x7, or 8x10 headshot/school picture/close up photo of your child (only your child in the picture please), with their name and grade printed on BOTH the back of the picture and the envelope you submit it in. You may drop this off at Sunday practices or leave it with the front desk of either campus. Please write on the envelope Frozen Star Wall; Attn. Ms. Kendrick





WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY UPDATE

In an effort to minimize distractions during rehearsal, we need your help getting our cast "offline" while "on-stage". M-8th Students should not wear any Bluetooth devices to the remaining rehearsals (including shows) and should leave them at home.  These devices can also affect our sound system. Thank you for your assistance with this!




A Final Word about the Next 3 Weeks

Image result for please read important messageWe are once again looking forward to sharing the magic, joy and hard work of over 120 students with you in 21 days. 
The limited time we have left means every practice, hour and minute is important.
We are rapidly approaching the mandatory practices of March, this means staying for the entirety of your participant's call times. The early dismissals and late arrivals can disrupt scenes, blocking, and choreography. It is essential to attend these rehearsals in full.

We are looking forward to a fabulous few weeks before a tremendous show!
