Where our stage is big enough for EVERYONE to find their place!
Updates for Company Families--Cast!
Cast Email from Sunday 1/12
Hi folks!
A billion notes, so I'll keep them organized--
Rehearsals
Monday 1/13 4:05-5:45--
People called: Elyse, Zach, Team On the Stage PLUS all extra kids in MAKE EM LAUGH We are going to polish and perfect Make 'Em Laugh (come if you can, kids with regular Monday commitments are excused).
Marianne, Kate, Adella, Lorelei, Violet, Payton, Claire Sh.,--work pp 60-69
ANYONE who wants/needs help with dance steps, or singing--we can have you work with Hannah, Aria, Grace, or Ms. Geske.
If none of the above APPLIES to YOU--you do not have to come!
Tuesday 1/14 4:05-5:20 FEMALE MAKEUP and HAIR DAY!
Who: All actors playing FEMALE ROLES should meet in the cafeteria after school for a stage makeup lesson, practice session and hair trials.
It would very much help if you brought your own BRUSH, COMB HAIR TIES and BOBBY PINS in a ziploc bag with your name on it.
In addition, here is the message sent out regarding those in the choir concert!
Ms. Geske has kindly offered to pick up pizzas on her way to school so that kids can eat before their 5:45 call. I'm asking for a $5 donation to help cover the cost of pizza, some grab-n-go fruit, and water. Feel free to send cash with your student or Venmo me @stacey-pritchard-2 (2711).
Please send their choir clothes to school with your child and we will have them change and eat dinner before the concert.
Wednesday 1/15 4:05-5 MALE MAKEUP and HAIR DAY!
Who: All MALE actors and actors playing MALE or ANDROGYNOUS ROLES should come to room 496 after school for a stage makeup lesson and practice session led by Ms. Geske, who has a background in theatrical hair and makeup.
If your child has a conflict and cannot attend, that is fine, they do not need to let us know. Otherwise, I hope to have Adella, Zach, Danny, Payton, Kellen, Lorelei, Mason, Heath, Ozkar, Jon, Will, Simeon, Caden and Connor in attendance. Thank you!

Ticketing and publicity
Share the ticketing links far and wide! I am working on getting them on the website after this email goes out!!!!
Invite everyone you know! I have also attached the poster. Put it on facebook. Make an event. Invite your family and friends. The more people that come, the more tickets we sell, and ticket sales = money for PMS school. The more people at the show = more concessions and souvenirs sold. Concessions, souvenirs and direct donations to our theater program are the only way our program makes money!
Each day and each show has its own separate link for tickets!
Prepping for Tech Week
EVERY ACTOR NEEDS to PROVIDE (please start gathering into a bag now)
Base layer -- tight fitting shorts and a tank top with NO WRITING and without complicated straps, in a skin toneish color, or grey, white or black, to be worn UNDER their costume AT ALL TIMES. At RMS, we share the restrooms with the audience members, and there are no dressing rooms, so all the students change in the hall and two large classrooms. Nearly every actor has at least one costume change so this is mandatory.
Males/characters playing males can also have a plain short sleeved t-shirt in lieu of a tank top. Kellen, Will, Mason, Danny, Zach, Lorelei, Payton, Adella's must be white, other's can be a different color.
JAZZ SHOES unless we have provided you some or are working on sourcing you shoes.
SOCKS or TIGHTS, depending on costume. Anyone costumed in pants needs to have socks, and males should have either black, brown or ARGYLE socks. NO WHITE, Athletic or shorty socks. For tights, opaque skin tone is good, as are nylons. For females playing a younger person/kid (Emma J, Everly, Cami, Olivia, etc.--black opaque tights are perfect).
A ZIPLOC BAG of the following "MAKEUP" kit: travel size deodorant, brush or comb, toothbrush and toothpaste, your own chapstick, a pack of hair ties and a pack of bobby pins (if your hair is shoulder length or below), a pack of makeup wipes (regardless of gender). We have sanitized makeup and disposable applicators to use on every child, as well as makeup in the entire range of skin tones of our cast, so we will be fine colorwise. However any kids who are very fair should purchase and bring their own BROWN mascara if they have blond or red hair and black mascara if they have brown or black hair.
I AM SO SORRY THIS IS COMING OUT SO LATE! WORKING OUT THE SCHEDULE IS A BIG CHALLENGE in the FINAL FEW DAYS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE and GRACE!
With gratitude and love,
Nina
