Hell Week/ Tech Week Assignments
Props: Caitlin Breivogel, Amanda Zahran, Rachel Burwell, Jeralayne Ruiz
Paint: Colleen Elliot, Marissa Hoefenkreig, Noelle Perrone, Kate Tenenbaum, Christine Vanella, Gwyn Vaughn
Pit: Ben Falbo, Sean Joyce, Maribel Sabino, Lauren LaMagna, Noel Mahabir, Ryan Dziedziech
Clean Up: (some of you will be assigned to a different crew for tech week but for next week you'll be cleaning up for tech/room/general) Brianna Paoli, Cara Leggio, Maddy Gottlied, Cassidy Nelson, Jamie Solomon, Paige Gittleson, Mike Multer, Brandon Lax, Logan Neary, Lydia Librizzi
Please get in touch with a crew chief to arrange what days you will be coming to tech. If you were assigned to Clean Up you should get in touch with an officer or a tech crew chief. Tell the Crew Chiefs any conflicts you have for the next two weeks so they can let you know which three days to come.
If you are not on a major crew that works during tech nights and are not on this list, contact an officer ASAP.
On another note, there will be a huge publicity run during tech tomorrow so everyone (especially if you have a car) please come help out.

New Tech Day/Night Policy
Tech Nights and Days have been absolutely pathetic lately. This is unacceptable. So to try to fix this problem, we will be instituting a new policy for next week and the week afterwards. Hell week is not one week for this show. We are very short on time and really, Hell Week starts now.
Tomorrow in class anyone not on a crew- or not on a crew that works during hell week- will sign up to be assigned to a crew. You will be notified over the weekend which crew you are assigned to, and the crew chiefs will let you know when you need to be there over the two Hell Weeks. (if this is confusing, it will be explained in class tomorrow) This way, every student in On Tour will be obligated to be here during tech and hopefully we will be more productive in the coming weeks. This is not to say that everyone needs to come every single day (aside from cast members) but everyone does need to come at a minimum of three days a week.
This show is the most challenging technical show we have done in a long time, and it will not fall into place by itself. We really need all hands on deck.
If you do not meet the requirements specified by the crew you are assigned to, you will receive a failing crew hours grade. If you are already on a major crew and you do not come frequently enough to tech, you will be removed from said crew.
We are not doing this to be mean. We are doing this because we all want this show to succeed and hopefully you do too.
P.S. Tomorrow's rehearsal is changed to finishing Gaston with Sal and blocking Human Again afterwards. This is still the same people needed as before.
Next week's schedule will be posted tomorrow.

CC Meetings
Today's crew chief meeting had a very disappointing turnout. We would like to remind you that CC meetings are mandatory or all crew chiefs. If you have a legitimate excuse and you tell an officer prior to the CC meeting and have someone to represent your crew, you will be excused. However, starting now, if you fail to attend a meeting without notifying an officer, or if your crew is not represented at the meeting, you will be deducted one hour. If you have any questions please ask an officer.
Sorry to be mean, we're only trying to get things done:)
Love, Jenna and Julia <3
