Rehearsals this week

Remember no rehearsal on Monday because there is no school.

Tuesday is Horton, Sour Kanagroo and the Wickershams, as well as the Stars. (There was an error on the calendar, Jungle Brigade does not have rehearsal on Tuesday.)

Wednesday is Whos & Fishes. We will be working on Here on Who as well as It's Possible (which the fishes are in.)

Thursday & Friday are Jungle Animals. This is all the speaking roles that are considered Jungle Animals (Cat, Horton, Gertrude, Mayzie, Kangaroo, Wickershams & Bird Girls). Fishes you will not be in this number. Come ready to dance.

As far as the week after that Jan 26-30 it is accurate and Fishes need to come that Monday with the Whos.

To answer many questions I have been getting from parents and students; speaking roles have the books, kids in the core know who they are, so if you are wondering if your child is in the core, they're not. Tickets will be $4 and go on sale in March. A costume deadline will be set for mid to late February. I have not ordered the jungle animal costumes. No costume has been started as a matter of fact.

And as a side note, I do love these kids they have been working hard each day. I do threaten them each day, and they follow through with what I ask, so the threat model seems to be yielding positive fruit.We were able to stage nearly all of the opening number the other day and not only do they look great but they sound awesome. We can tell that many students have been practicing on their own. I left rehearsal every day last week like we accomplished something. Which I hope you kids feel, they are fantastic and have been awesome! I can already tell that this will be the best ACYI show yet!
