Underway, etc...

To:  Cast & Crew
From:  John McC

I just wanted to share a couple of things:

1.  First of all, rehearsals are underway and going beautifully...Monday we blocked the office scene w/ Fred, etc...and last night we blocked the scene with Marley...so, forward we go - full speed ahead...

2.  I want to encourage everyone to try to see "Legend of Sleepy Hollow"...several of our cast are also members of that cast...they deserve our support...plus, youth theatre shows are always a delight.  "Legend" plays Friday and Sunday.  ALSO, you might want to check out the radio show this weekend - "War of the Worlds"...radio shows are always fun and some of our cast are involved in that show, too...

3.  I was told last night that Thursday's rehearsal (the 29th) will be in the Lobby...as stated on the schedule, it covers all the scenes with the Ghost of Christmas Past - PLUS Belle...it will run from 7:00pm until about 8:45pm...there will be a radio show rehearsal going on in the Little Theatre, so please do not disturb them...

4.  Looking toward Monday (November 2)...we will be blocking the three "crowd" scenes...in addition to those listed as "crowd/ensemble" I'd like to see Old Joe, Doorstop Woman, Ignorance, Want, Carolers, Buck, business associates, undertaker's man, Dilber, laundress, Fred's party guests, Fezziwig's party guests, fiddler, concertina player, Poole, and Lamb.  The following can also be included - but not as their character, but as a townsfolk - 9yr old Scrooge, 16yr old Scrooge, 22yr old Scrooge, Fan, and Mrs. Fezziwig...I have still not been told where that rehearsal will be held, so plan to report to the lobby...when I find out, I will let you know...that rehearsal starts at 7:00pm and will end at about 8:45pm...

5.  Happy Halloween!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
