Musical Info

PRODUCTION WEEK - please see the previous blog entry for next week's rehearsal schedule.

TICKETS - will be sold in the bookstore.
Prices: L100 per person for one night entrance. L150 for tickets that allow entrance for both nights. There will be special Combo Packages for families of the children in the musical. These packages will include 4 tickets to Thursday's performance, 4 tickets to Friday's performance, and 2 double tickets that allow entrance for both performances. This Combo Package saves you L100! Extra tickets or individual tickets can be purchased at the bookstore. Tickets will also be sold at the doors the night of the performances. (Please remember doors close at 7pm sharp!)

LABEL YOUR COSTUMES! Because the costumes all look the same for each grade level, and because there will be many children (and perhaps a little chaos) in the changerooms, PLEASE make sure to label ALL of your child's costumes with their name. This will save us from any confusion, mix-up, and lost costumes.

DURING THE SHOWS:
Snacks: Please send along a water bottle and a small snack with your child every day next week. This includes rehearsals and the nights of the show. NO JUICE PLEASE or any food that is messy or may stain the costumes. Snacks like grapes, cookies, granola bars, apple, etc. are perfect snacks that won't spill.
Changing Costumes: Grades will be assigned to changing rooms by grade levels. In some cases this may mean there are both males and females in the groups. Although boys will be somewhat separated from the girls by a small wall, all students should have a leotard or bathing suit on as a base for their costumes. This way, students can do changes without being caught in their underwear. Especially for the 4th and 5th grade students who have quick changes, this will help greatly.
Assistance in the Changerooms: There will be 2-3 teachers assigned to 1st and 2nd grade. There will be 2 teachers assigned to 3rd grade, and 1 assigned to 4th and 5th. These teachers will help students with changes in the changerooms, as well as manage behaviour and ensure the students are where they need to be when they need to be. In addition to this, possibly a few parents for the 1st and 2nd grade children (who require slightly more attention) can volunteer to assist. However, too many parents in the changerooms will make it even more hectic and chaos will ensue. Please sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!

NO CAMERAS OR VIDEOS: We will be hiring professional photographers who will be taking many photos during our Wednesday performance for the English courses. They will also be at the performances Thursday and Friday to take photos of the performances. In addition, they will be available during intermission and after the show for families to get photos with their star performer! We also are hiring someone to take video of the entire show. No cameras or video cameras will be permitted in the auditorium. Please leave these at home and let us do the work for you!

Any questions, please e-mail me (swillett@amschool.org)
SO excited for the performance. It's going to be a GREAT show!
