OPENING NIGHT

Cast/Crew Dinner will be at Red Robin's on NE Grand at about 4 o'clock. We will be meeting in the foyer/auditorium at 3:15 (or earlier.)

Red Robin's doesn't take reservations, so we just have to get there early, shouldn't be a problem since we're going so early. They'll start saving seats for us once half of our party is there, so we might go in waves if some people get there early. Here is the website for their menu http://www.redrobin.com/home/menu.aspx.

DRESS FANCY TOMORROW. THURSDAY. It's our chance to go wild and show off and sell the show!!!!!

SECRET PAL GIFTS!!!! Give your secret pal a super awesome gift on opening night or else!Break a leg!!!!!!!

Tartuffe notes: Sunday 2/22

Act 1
It was very hard to understand anyone at the top of the show. We need more projection and articulation. We’re looking into hanging some curtains in the house to muffle some of the echo.
Orgon: cheat out more as you hear the report from Dorine regarding Elmire and Tartuffe. We can’t see your face most of the time.
Dorine: great projection
ALL: The upper class people need more white on their faces. If you have not already bought “clown white”, that’ll work.
Act 2
Orgon: cross with more purpose as you are calling to Mariane and going toward the archway.
ALL: All actors who have counterparts should be watching the show when their counterpart is on stage.
Dorine: Thanks for fixing the sconce. Always feel free to pick up/move things if you know they’re in the wrong place or have fallen.
Orgon: Good reaction to being tickled.
Act 3
Dorine: We could not hear “been seen dead”.
Mariane and Valere: Some nice moments where you are really showing the style.
ALL: Noone has the right to break character…. You always need to cover, especially when it’s something avoidable.
Tartuffe: I thought you sat in the stage left chair at the top of the Elmire scene.
Damis: hug the wall more when hiding… try to look more like you’re hiding until right before you reveal yourself to the others.
Tartuffe: slow down when talking to Orgon about how bad you are—really role play how terrible you are and manipulate him.
ALL: see me if you want to invite someone to Wednesday’s Preview Night.
Act 4
Tartuffe: you need to cheat out more, the wig is covering your face.
Orgon: project
Tartuffe: good job on “No, you get out.”
Orgon: make sure we hear the lines as your go up the stairs about the attaché case
Act 5
Damis: articulate… it was hard to understand what you were saying
Flipote: why did you miss your entrance?
Valere: enter just a little sooner to give Mariane the flower so that there’s no gap between the line preceeding yours, and you talking to Orgon
Officer: articulate “Follow me at once.”
Laurent: practice taking the wig off Tartuffe
Officers: knock on the door at the curtain call for Dorine to let you in.

MAKE UP KITS
You guys want to get a student make up kit, Hollywood Lights is probably your best bet to get this. If you're in Restoration you want to pick up some Ben Nye 01, a white powder to help whiteify your faces like they would be in Restoration times. For kits, there are Ben Nye ones or Kroylon, our wig master prefers the Kroylon, but I'm sure whatever works. The kits are usually around $15.

Saturday-WORK PARTY (if you haven't come to one yet come this saturday!!!!

For this weeks rehearsals, if it's only the other cast you should still come to rehearsal, but if you feel you really need the time to study and do homework or things, talk to Jim and if you make a good enough case he may let you off the hook. IF HE DOES make sure you call/text/tell me in person that you've cleared it with him because otherwise it will waste time and energy with me trying to figure out where you all are and calling you and blah blah blah so LET ME KNOW!!!!

And just so you know, next week plan on having rehearsal EVERY SINGLE DAY NO MATTER WHAT ACTS YOU ARE IN!

If there is some horribly important thing some day next week that there is absolutely no way you can miss, let me know NOW!

~Mari

We need to procure pretty measurements to be used for preening preaching players. In simpler terms-everyone come at le beginning of rehearsal and we'll take your measurements. DO IT!

~Mari

PREVIEW EVENTS-

We're planning two preview events right now, both on FEBRUARY 11th. The first is an ISC Hot Topics lecture which will be at 2.30 so a few of you would have to get out early. For this Jim was thinking about doing the Marianne Valere Dorine scene, both in modern and in restoration. The second is 8th grade information night, from 6-8pm. We will probably just do the same scene, unless anyone has any ideas for another cool scene we could do. So, please let me know if you would not be available that day for these events, even if you aren't part of the scenes as of now. 

See you tomorrow! Tell others about measuring going on at the beginning of rehearsal. Gratci!

WORKSHOPS! YAY!

Hey guys and girls,

So, we are very lucky to have someone from RE-Theatre able to come do a workshop with us. They specialize in taking restoration plays and revitalizing them with new ideas, seeing them from a new perspective. This workshop is going to be happening most likely next Saturday, the 7th, and we're going to need EVERYONE to come. It shouldn't be take up too much of your day, so you'll still be able to come to the work party afterwards!!!! I need to know what you folks would prefer, morning of afternoon, and we'll try to accommodate. So let me know and I'll see ALL OF YOU tomorrow for the vocal workshop (only for the first half hour of rehearsal.)

ALL CAST

We need everyone to come to rehearsal for the first 30 minutes of rehearsal on Thursday, that is this Thursday the 29th, last day of finals. We're having someone come in to help us with projection and articulation so we need EVERYONE EVERYONE EVERYONE to come in, its just for the first half hour, that's 3:30-4:00. If you aren't going to be able to make it, let me know, otherwise EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU is required to be there. rawr.

See ya then.

PERFORMANCE DATES

Please, ASAP, let me know if you have a preference for which days your cast is going. This really only applies to the girls, so boys, you get every night no matter what! :) 

The show will start on whichever cast and then switch off every day. Right now we have one person who would prefer the Modern Cast to start it off, let me know ASAP if you have any real concerns or Jim and I will make an executive decision without you.

DID YOU KNOW?

HEADSHOTS-Natalie needs head shots from all of you ASAP. If you don't email her a headshot at nataliefloss@gmail.com, you will be using the rather boring pictures we will take at rehearsal, so EMAIL HER!!!! (you should all have an email from her with more details about this too.)

Just a couple notes-

     If you have a line after someone's where it says "blah blah blah..." make sure you cut them off a BEFORE they actually finish their line. Start in on your line a word or two before they're finished to make this more realistic. 

     If you have any lines that you are saying and you're facing away from the audience or to either side, make sure you project doubly as loud because your voice is now bouncing off walls not into the audience. 

     MEMORIZE. MEMORIZE MEMORIZE MEMORIZE. MEMORIZE. 

     LOOK OVER BLOCKING. LOOK OVER BLOCKING LOOK OVER BLOCKING LOOK OVER BLOCKING. If you have questions about your blocking, come ask me. Or your counterpart (for le girls) or Jazzi or Moses. Make sure you know your blocking BEFORE we start rehearsing the act. 

Thanks everyone, see you all tomorrow!

COMMENTS

Hey everyone,

Just thought I'd let you know, you do not need to try to post your comment multiple times. I repeat, you do NOT need to continue to repost comments until they show up. One of us has to log on and check the little box that says "Publish" in order for all of you folks to see your comments, so if it's not up there seconds after you push okay don't worry, check back the next day or so, and it should be up, if it's not by then, you might want to try again.

Thanks dudes!!!!!!
~Mari

REMEMBER!

Hey Cast!!!!

Just a few reminders-

Memorize Memorize Memorize- The deadline to be off book for Acts 1 and 2 is January 25th, Please make sure you're off book by then! We can't work on physicalizing and fine tuning the play until you all have scripts out of your hands and words in your heads!

SECRET PALS-I've seen a couple of secret pal gifts make their way into our rehearsals, make sure you get your secret pal something, even if it is a little thing. If you're having trouble finding ways to give something to your secret pal try using your buddies in the play or Jim or myself. If you haven't gotten anything from your secret pal and are feeling a little neglected let me know and I will give them a little talking-to.


Questions? Comments? All sorts of wonderful words you want to use? Let me know.

THE WONDERS OF THE TECH WORLD

Hello all!

Sorry it's been a while since we last spoke.

First of all, thanks to the few of you that did come to last Saturday's Work Party, I hope to see more of you this Saturday, I know it's the weekend before finals, but we have work to do, and we need your help to do it!

Here is more of an outline of when you will need to start coming in seriously.

Lights-
You will need to start coming in 2 nights a week starting the first week of February, as soon as I know which nights for sure I will let you know.

Props-
I have a list of all the props we need in the show (so far), come to the auditorium during/after flex any of these days and I should be there, or I can e-mail them to you if that's easier. Most of the props will probably be hidden somewhere in our Prop Room, and you two will need to find them. If there's anything we don't have, we need to know asap so we can ask cast/crew if anyone has anything they can lend us, or so one of you can buy it. Basically this is whenever/as soon as you guys can. We're in rehearsal everyday from 3.30-6.30 after school, and you know about Work Parties.

Costumes-
Every Saturday (like everyone else!) I know you worked on pulling costumes last weekend, there will probably be a little more of that this weekend too. I need to talk to our costume designer a little more before I can give you more details, I'll do that asap.

House Manager-
For now just coming and helping out at the Work Parties, your job comes into focus more during the actual run of the show, I'll explain more when that gets closer.

Run Crew-
For now just come and help out at the work parties, when we get more things built and I can figure out how much will have to be done each night before the show I'll let you guys know.

Techie Extrordinaire-
Come on Saturdays and help out. If there's more I'll let you know.



EVERYONE-
Come on Saturday to Work Parties!!!!!! Let me know if you have any questions. If you want schedules printed out let me know and I'll do that for you. See you soon!
