Grease
The '50s Musical

Presenting at:

Edmunds Middle School
May 7, 8, 9, & 10, 2008

 

Updates:
1) Parents: If it's essential that your child have a cell phone at school please remind them that they're not allowed at rehearsal—taking pictures of each other with their phones while adults are attempting to keep them focused is frustrating. They can use them at the end of a rehearsal to call you but that's it.
2) Students should keep up with their academics. They can bring homework to all-cast rehearsals.
3) Bring all costume pieces to this Wednesday's costume party.
4) We're striving for perfect attendance from here on out.
5) Participants should visit verymerrytheatre.org and sing along to the instrumental version Ashley recorded for them.
6) Review lines daily during vacation: Emphasize volume, pace, clarity, and expression.
7) The deadline for completing bios is Tuesday, 4/15.
8) A reminder that many students have a photo retake at rehearsal this Monday.
