Schedule Update and Headshot Information...

Hello everybody!

Well, this week has been very busy so far, but it will continue to be very productive. Costumes are finishing fittings and continuing to pull costumes and make alterations, the little showcase is done (YAY KATE!!!) and the big showcase is undergoing a major paint job that has been needed for four years... so far it looks great (Toby, Megan, James, Vanessa, Ryan etc... have been working very hard to finish it). Lights are hung and circuited, the stage is built and the balcony is in the process of being built, the audience risers are up, the pit isn't a wreck, paint is almost done basing the Masonite for the stage... although a lot is done, we are somewhat behind and have a lot more work to do.
Therefore...

Finally, since we have not had time to do our head shot fundraiser, one of our photography students will take temporary head shots of all cast members for this program. The dates are as follows:
BOY HEAD SHOTS will be taken WEDNESDAY (today) after school, starting at 2:45.
GIRL HEAD SHOTS will be taken on THURSDAY (tomorrow) after school, starting at 2:45.
Students should wear LIGHT colored clothing with NO WRITING on the front. The background will be dark. Also note, these photos will be in black and white.

Please note, the head shots being taken now are temporary and are being taken on a regular camera. They will be used for this show only. The real head shots, to be taken by our resident professional photographer, will be taken sometime soon after closing for a small cost, as a fundraiser. Although you may opt to use this temporary head shot permanently or submit your own head shot (which is permitted), please note the professional head shots will be done with a professional camera, can be printed to full 8 1/2" X 11" photo and can be re-touched. And again, this will be a FUNDRAISER so every body wins! (We make some money and you get high quality head shots at a very discounted price.)
