Matilda Calendar and Remind Info

 Hi everyone,

Wanted to put the Matilda rehearsal calendar, linked HERE, back at the forefront of your mind now that it's finalized and completed.  (This is the same link as before, just included it again to be helpful.)

A few calendar/rehearsal notes:

1. Please look ahead and email me to ask clarifying questions.  Don't wait until the day of the rehearsal you have a question about to email me - I might not have time to respond to you.

2. Your conflicts have been added to the Director's calendar and will be considered excused absences.  At this point, you may not add additional conflict dates.

3. Beginning Nov. 4 (first day of tech rehearsals) absences are not allowed for any reason.  Any other commitments should be put on hold until after Matilda strike as all remaining rehearsals, performances, and strike (11/4 and on) are MANDATORY for all members of the production!

4. If you are going to miss rehearsal because of an illness, your parent/guardian must email me at least 3 hours before rehearsal in order for your absence to be considered excused.

5. Unexcused absence(s) may result in you being removed from specific numbers or the entire production - don't miss!!!

6. If you have an excused absence on a day when you are called for rehearsal, it is YOUR JOB to meet with one of your cast members, Nate, or one of our dance captains to learn what you missed.  You will be expected to have learned the material by the next time that number or scene is rehearsed.

7. We will NOT be sending daily messages through Remind about what is happening in rehearsal that day.  The expectation is that you're referencing the calendar daily AND looking ahead.

8. My expectation is that you are ready to begin rehearsals at the start time indicated on the calendar.  That means that you should plan to arrive to rehearsal 5 minutes early.

Thank you for all the time, effort, and work that you've already put into Matilda - I'm appreciative of you all and very excited to continue working on our production!
