Region/State Update and Foreigner Aide Needs!

Hey all!

A few things - first, Region and State Team auditions are on Thursday after school!  Be sure and pop into the green room today or tomorrow and sign-up for a spot to show Struiks and Cline what you got. :)  We are rooting for you! Remember, it doesn't need to be perfect - just ready to present and we'll help you clean it for competition. We will post the cast list on the blog on Friday at 10:30am.  If you make team, please come to a meeting at 12:30pm in the Theatre Room THAT DAY to get all the appropriate paper work and senior coaches - it should only take 20 minutes.

Second - We have our huge "The Foreigner" build day this coming Saturday from 8am-2pm, which is when we will position set pieces and rebuild some of the house structure.  We are in need of a handful of burley, strong parents who can support getting the top platforms onto the base structures.  IF you were there for Addams Family, we are NOT doing the bridge, just the tops, so it should be MUCH easier.  

If you are able to show up at the beginning of rehearsal to help us get things placed on top, PLEASE let me know!  The students are more than capable of connecting things, drilling them together, and finalizing set, but I would feel more comfortable with some other adults present to lift the tops on since they're heavy. 
A sidenote:  Please remind your kiddos (I will as well) to pack a lunch for Saturday.

Future things for the calendar:
  • Come see "The Foreigner" on February 15-18th at 7pm!  Tickets will be on sale on the AHS Athletics page on February 1st. 
  • Region IE Date - March 23rd

  • Advanced Class Auditions - if in Theatre 2/3 we will audition in class; if not in class and wanting to audition, submit two contrasting one-minute monologues to Miss Struiksma by April 10th at 3:00pm for consideration. 
  • SDOA Auditions - April 19th 
  • End-of-the-Year Banquet - May 19th
