Congratulations on what has been a great run through two weekends! We're averaging over 100 per night, and that is no small feat for a non-musical. You should all be very proud of your accomplishement.
A couple of notes for this week...
First, we WILL have a pickup rehearsal this Thursday at 7:00. It will just be a line-through, so you should get out fairly early. Olivia will read for Chelsey. Cheryl will be running the rehearsal since I have a prior committment. If you can't make it by 7:00, please let Cheryl know so she can adjust accordingly.
Make sure you spend time in your scripts this week. I sensed a lot of uncertainty in many of you Friday night, and that tells me that the scripts were likely collecting dust all week. Saturday was so much better, which just reinforces that belief.
AD-LIBS: At this point, the show is familiar enough that some ad-libs are likely to start creeping into the show. For now, the only authorized ad-lib is Richard's line about "Checking on Rafe O'Connor," and he can only use that IF he also keeps in the part about the earthworms. Remember that the author will be here on Sunday, and we owe it to him to deliver the dialogue that he wrote.
Please remember that we now have Sunday matinees for the remainder of the production run. Call time for Friday and Saturday will remain at 6:30. Call time for Sunday is 1:30. Pat Cook will be conducting a talk back after this Sunday's show; each member of the cast is expected to stay and participate. You will be given a few minutes to get out of costume and remove makeup if you wish before the talk back starts on the Garza stage around 5:30. We should finish the evening by 6:00, but certainly no later than 6:30.
Finally, if you have not made plans to use your two comp tickets for the show, make sure you email Carla at pconover@entouch.net with the dates you'd like to use them. This Friday and Sunday are almost sold out, and I expect the other four shows will sell out as well, so get your requests in now for the best seating options.
Cheryl will see you Thursday, and I'll see you Friday!
Tracy
