Great opening tonight everyone! You were all amazing and I couldn't be more proud of you.
Now for some notes for tomorrow. Call time is 6:00. I think we will be able to use the stage door, but I'm not positive so if you get there and the door is locked, call me (Dylan) 425-263-0340, and I will sort it out as I will try to get there early. Also remember guys, we cannot talk in the hall. It's not just being quite, it's not talking. If you need to talk, you can run back to the green room.
Okay, see everyone tomorrow!
SOUND OF THE DAY
Applause - Audience
P.S. There is going to be a Harry Potter talk ban in effect for the weekend. So any talk about the new book is forbidden during the rest of the show, I know it will be tough, but it's for people who have not finished the book, we don't want to spoil it for them. Thanks!

More from Julia...
Awesome work tonight folks. Keep it up... Only one more rehearsal! Remember to get plenty of rest and bring a water bottle... You'll need it tomorrow. Promise. :)
Tomorrow is (as we've mentioned a bazillion times...) our only tech/dress rehearsal. Please, please, please remember to bring your jeans and dance shoes. Awesome. Also, Sam Freeman has offered to take production photos, and an archival video tape. Photos will be tomorrow. Taping sometime during the weekend. That means that not only will we be in costumes tomorrow, we'll also have to do hair and makeup. Please come to rehearsal with as much of this done as possible so we don't waste our precious time breaking to glam it up. :)
Ladies: we'd love it if you all wore your hair down, but pulled back off your face either by half-pony, poof, twists, whatever... Just wear it down and off your faces please. For make-up, just a pumped up version of street make-up. Base/foundation if you wear it normally only. Emphasize your eyes as much as you can, and wear a little something on your lips. There won't be a need for much more than that. Super.
Gents: meh. You know... If you've got make-up (as all you performer fellows should...) go ahead and bring it. My guess is you won't need it, but if your eyes disappear into your handsome faces, we'll need to pop 'em with a little mascara. :) Great. And I really don't care what you do with your hair. I trust you, scary as that concept may be. ;)
Again, great work tonight. We'll see you all tomorrow! Yay!

Good work today everybody. You were really quite at the beginning, but then it kind of fell apart. But still good work! Review that choreography that gotten throw at you tonight, we don't expect it to be perfect, but you should know where you're going and when.
Speaking of tomorrow, it will be the day that everything makes sense. You know how everyone has been say, "We'll do that on Thursday"? Well in case you didn't know, tomorrow's Thursday! But in order for everything to click like that we are going to have to be quite and focused. Tech week is always the most challenging, but most fun, part of the rehearsal process, and we have to do it in one day! So remember, be ready to be quite and sit still when you aren't being used.
If you did not bring your jeans today, make sure you do tomorrow. They are your costume, and since tomorrow is a dress rehearsal, you kind of need your costume.
Also, if you can make it at five tomorrow, that would be great, so that we can be set up as soon as possible.
Finally, do your character report. You should write a story for each of the three group songs as it relates to you. You should hand it into Caitlin tomorrow.
Thanks again, and see you all tomorrow!

A friendly note from your producer...
Ok, guys... I hope you all feel as good as I do about our show after that run-through. We're absolutely on the right track! Get ready to work your butt off this next week though, we've still got lots to do! :)
With that in mind, remember to take care of your voices, bodies, and attitudes this week. I'm well aware that we're all tired at this point. Just remember to keep your chin up and your patience on high so we all get through this next week with our wits about us. Yay!
Also, core-team folks... Monday is our last production meeting. Please, over the weekend, start taking notes about things you think need discussing. That way we can be sure to hit everything without risk of forgetting something. :) Awesome? Awesome...
Thank you all for all your crazy hard work so far... Hang in there! :)

Good job on choreography today! Also good job on being quieter. Remember review your choreography and YOUR MUSIC. You should be off book completely, which also means knowing when not to sing. Rest your voices everyone. We perform in about a week! I know it's scary but if everyone is nice to themselves and others it should be fine. Tomorrow is a run through. We will post a show order in the room tomorrow, but you should know what songs you are after and where the group songs fall. Thanks again for all your hard work and see you tomorrow!

Weekend Update for 7/9/07
Great job on the sing-through today, everybody is sounding great. Remember to review your dance steps and music over the weekend, and practice your salsa! REMEMBER everyone needs to be off-book by Monday. This means no more holding music when we are practicing! There is a production meeting on Monday from 5:30-7:00, so if you are only a performer you are not called until 7:00. Fill out those character sheets T.J. handed out, they aren't "due" but he would like to see them at some point. Hand out those postcards so we can start selling some tickets! Again great job today and see you on Monday!
P.S. Monday is going to be the first day we have the entire team, both directors and performers, in one place! Woot Woot!
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
"Benika" -Aliyah (I think)

You will get the form tomorow at rehersal.
Thanks
