FITTINGS

Costume fittings for the next show will be on Monday 3/31 at 2:45 in the room.  If you haven't been in  show yet and you auditioned, you MUST  get fitted just in case you are casted.  IF the cast list is posted by Monday, then you only need to get fitted if you are in the cast and haven't been in a show this year.

Questions?  See Nicolette or Emily.

Just a little FYI...

Although Sal has not decided on the final  production of the year yet (he's getting close...), he has officially decided that this production will not be considered a senior farewell.  Casting will be "equal opportunity" and auditions will be held probably the week we get back.  If you are interested in auditioning for the final show of the year, please memorize a monologue over vacation.  Be prepared to audition at the drop of a hat.  Also, seniors, Sal isn't sure if he will need us to audition as well, or if he will just count our in-class monologues as our auditions.  Please have a monologue ready just in case as well.
I know this is not the ideal way that some of us would like the year to end.  For lack of a better metaphor, Sal has given us lemons, so let's make lemonade.  Let's work just as hard on this production as we have for all of the others and finish this past year of many successes and land-marks off with a bang!
Enjoy your mini-break, On Tour.

"Closin'" Thoughts...

To the cast, crew and management of AGYG:
Congrats on an amazing run.  We pulled-off this difficult show in a short amount of time.  Everyone worked hard in their own way, everyone was pretty dedicated and all of our hard work truly paid off.  We made thousands of dollars in ticket sales, and sold at least 100 more tickets this closing night than we did for the closing night of Evita.  "Props" to us.
"THERE'S NO BUSINESS LIKE SHOW BUSINESS!" :D

and on that note...
MANDATORY STRIKE (for Cast and ALL crew and running crew members)
Monday 3/17, 2:45-6:00pm

the rest of the week TBA as needed...

ENJOY YOUR VACATIONS EVERYONE!  WE DESERVE IT!

A Message from the AGYG Management

Hey Guys!

As you all know, we are now in hell week. There are a quite a few more things that need to get done in order to pull this show together. From props to paint and tech to the scenes themselves. We need everyone to come ready to work.

As you all know, hell week rehearsals and tech days/nights are mandatory. And we will be having rehearsal/tech every day and evening.With everything that gets done, our schedule will depend on the progress that we make daily. So please note that ALL CAST MEMBERS ARE CALLED FOR EVERY DAY! You will get your dinner breaks.

Please remember a few things:
1) There are NO EXCUSED CONFLICTS FOR HELL WEEK
2) Make sure that you have your shoes BY TUESDAY
3) CHARACTER ANALYSIS DUE MONDAY 3/3/08

This will most definitely be a demanding week. Just be prepared and we'll have a lot of fun, and hopefully push this show past Sal's expectations and live up to the standards of On Tour's previous musicals.

With love and confidence,
You Can't Get A Man With A Duck
(AGYG Management)
