In this workshop we will get to know the performers strengths, and all the performers will get to meet each other.  It is fun and stress free.  You do not have to prepare anything.  Just come dressed to roll on the floor and have fun. 

One parent per family must attend the first day of classes.  Any and all conflicts must be noted during registration. 

Director will consider each case individually to determine if missed rehearsal will keep a child from performing his role. 

Director must be informed at registration if there are any rehearsal or performance conflicts.

In costume on May 1, 2008.  Publicity photos will be taken at this time. 

2.  Work one performance as a chaperone, usher, or in ticket and refreshment sales as needed.  This would necessitate attending one dress rehearsal to learn what needs to be done for the performers.  We understand that some parents would prefer not to do this, and that is perfectly ok.  In lieu of helping one could pay a $25 fee, and we'll arrange for someone else to take your place. 

3.  Costumes:

• Have their child in costume ready by May 1, 2008. 
• Have their child dressed in costume before class starts on May 1, 2008.  Publicity photos will be taken at this time. 
• The parent is responsible for seeing that their child has their complete costume for this date and for all dress rehearsals and all performances. 
• Very important:  Make sure your performer's costume is hung neatly after every rehearsals and performances.  This impacts the whole cast.

5.  Talk about the show to everyone you know.  We're serious.  This is a performance, and it is very important for the performer's development to have good audiences for all their shows.  We advertise the shows, but personal invitations to the show work better than any publicity campaign!

Everyone is welcome to attend the performances if they are well behaved.  We request that noisy children be immediately removed to the lobby.
