Last minute stuff for Monday's dress rehearsal

Cast and crew of "The Wars of 1812":

Good work on Friday!  If you haven't done this already, LEARN YOUR LINES!!

Soldiers:  wear dark pants and boots, please!  Everyone else, if you're playing a regular person, think of what your character would wear.  If you don't have anything appropriate, ask Rachel, Noa, or Marley if they could find you something in the prop room.  There are also boots there, but they might not fit you!

Please come to rehearsal as soon after the bell as possible!  We don't want to be rehearsing till 7.  A couple of the cast have a show on Monday evening -- "Village of Idiots" at the Gateway Theatre.  I hear it's great.  I am going to try to go after dress rehearsal, so we want to be done well before 6!

At lunch, we'll be practicing the set changes.  Everyone should come -- cast and crew!

Grade 8 students:  please remember to bring $5 to pay for your ticket to the play.  A Block will attend on Wednesday and D Block on Thursday.  It is really helpful to the Drama program if you can pay, because we are not funded by the school.  The sets, costumes, props and scripts are paid for through ticket receipts.

Grade 9's, 11's and 12's:  Work on memorizing your monologues! Think about what the character wants.  Make strong choices about emotional states (love is stronger than like).  Think about who is listening to the character speak.  Is the character telling the whole truth?
