Prep for friday

So today's rehearsal was so efficient and good. The kids are amazing!

If students want to bring a laundry basket with their name on it that would be helpful to keep the clothes they change out of and store all their other things during the performance and it would also store their costume during non rehearsal time. ( Bird girls, stars and brigade pay no heed to this.)

Bring what you need to bring, if we are providing something we should have it there. So if we asked you to bring a shirt, bring it, if you are a who and bringing something from home bring it. Tomorrow is to see what we are missing and to figure it out.

I hope the kids came home feeling like the show is going to be soooooooo cool. But safety is a big concern of ours with the silks, moving platforms and tumblers. If you are not a silk specialist, you are allowed to even touch the silks. If you get run over by the platforms, it's your fault. Stay out of their way. They will do what they need to do and you need to get out of their way. Tumblers and Leia need space, give it to them.

I want to spotlight some kids who are always performing to the max, at least when I am watching: Sam Loosli, Kaylee Whipple and Taya Watson. I can't remember a day at rehearsals when those three are smiling, singing and dancing. If everyone would stand near them as to absorb their energy this show will quite literally blow the roof off of the auditorium.

So many kids care a lot about the success of the show. I want to spotlight Alie Reeder for helping Daiyan, who broke her toe, learn the choreography she missed. Everyone needs to be helpful like Alie, if someone has a question, help them. We want everyone to be great. If 90 of you go full out and 1 of you has no energy, guess what? We watch the one because they are different. Please don't stand out that way. Alie was helpful so that Daiyan wouldn't stand out because she was doing it wrong. (And I was watching Daiyan during Here on Who and she did it right, good job Alie!)

If you got a note for Saturday's lunch please email Emily ASAP!

Remember we start teaching make up at 9 so come a little early.
