PRE ORDER TICKETS

Don't forget that preorder tickets forms can be turned in this week.    :)

Weekly Update

Over the past couple of weeks we have been rehearsing very hard; memorizing lines, blocking our movements onstage, and becoming our characters. We have had two rehearsals especially dedicated to characterization.  During the first, we created little scenes in small groups that helped us understand our character's back stories and whatnot. We wrote silly letters to each other in character, and we helped clarify who our characters are especially close to. During the second characterization rehearsal, we found pictures online that would help show who our character is.
(Pictures will be posted later)
We also wrote down words that described our character (how they act, who they talk to, what they love, what they hate, etc.), and put them into a program called "Wordle" and created little "name pages" for our characters.
(Also to be posted at a later date)

Rehearsals are going well, we are working hard to meet our memorization deadline and have started solid blocking of the scenes. We are all enjoying rehearsals and making friendships and memories that we will keep with us for the rest of our lives.

More updates from cast members will be posted as we continue rehearsing for this wonderful production.
