Hello all Ozians!
Wow, what an incredible tech week and opening weekend! Suzy and I are so proud of each one of you, and we are so impressed with all of your hard work!
I just have a couple of quick notes for everyone below regarding scripts, pictures, and call times.
Everyone with a vocal book and/or script:Vocal books and scripts are due Saturday night (at the latest Sunday). Please make sure to erase all pencil marks you may have made BEFORE you return them. Please get them to me as soon as possible so I can check them in.
Everyone - Call Times for Friday and Saturday5:30 pm - Dorothy, Witch, Scarecrow, Tinman, Lion, Glinda, Wizard
5:50 pm - Em, Henry, Mayor, Barrister, City Fathers, Coroner, Tree 3, Schoolteachers
6:00 pm - All called
6:15 pm - Everyone in costume with makeup sitting in the house for notes. (Please arrive earlier than this time so that you are ready by 6:15. See below for information about pictures.)
Everyone - PicturesWe will be taking pictures on both Friday and Saturday after notes. Parents, please arrive at 6:15 if you are interested, and then as soon as notes are finished we will take pictures. Suzy will set the kids in a pose, and then she will give time for pictures before she sets another pose onstage. The house must be clear by 7:00.
In order to take pictures, on Friday after notes, all kids should be in their Munchkinland costumes. We will be taking pictures of all the munchkins with both Dorothy and Glinda onstage. We will then take a full cast picture with the set, so please dress in Act 1 costumes.
On Saturday, everyone should dress in Emerald city costumes (hair and makeup is optional). We will take pictures with Dorothy in Emerald City, and then we will take another full cast picture.
(Lion, Scarecrow, Tinman, and Witch do not have to have all of their Oz stuff on unless they would like. Tom, Maggie, and Cody can do any of their costumes.)
