Sewing Party
So a few moms have been great to volunteer to make some tunics. We have few more to make but we should be alright. This next Tuesday we are having a sewing party, we will be making the pant/skirt thingy. I have grandma who found a pattern, an easy pattern. So we want to see if there are moms who want to bring their sewing machine and make some easy pants that we can try on the kids after their rehearsal. So if you have a friend, aunt, neighbor or anyone who wants to sew a fairly simple costume, we would love to have them. One mom made a tunic and said it took her an hour to make. We will also need belts to be made, but those are last on the chain of importance of children's costumes. We had a few moms sign up for dates to supervise. So the sign up sheet will be at rehearsals next week. Thank you again for all you do.
Cast Bios
The Bio sheets need to be turned in this week. We have a lot of people that haven't filled one out yet. (Guards we understand because you haven't had a rehearsal yet.) So if there is anyway that those on this list could come to rehearsal tonight or tomorrow to fill one out that would be great.

Lots of Info
Thank you everyone for working hard. This next week there is not going to be a lot of rehearsals going on due to vacations and other things. This will allow us time to paint the set and make some costumes so that when we come back we are able to hit the ground running with nearly all of the set, props & costumes done and we can focus on putting all of those elements with our blocking, dancing and singing.
There will be another post coming in a few minutes with the rehearsal calendar for the remainder of the rehearsal process.
Some costume notes-
Singers- We have the vests for you. You need to bring a nude or black tank top or undershirt and gaucho pants. (They are flowy pant like bell-bottoms. Candice can explain it better than I can.)
Dancers- A black leotard with short sleeves and black leggins that go just past the knee.
Guards- We will have vests and pants. You need to bring a solid red shirt. We will pull dock worker costumes from the costume shop.
Young Lovers- We are still looking so we will keep you updated.
Children- We have some of your costumes. Some are being made and some more will need to be made. I have 2 moms who are experimenting this weekend on making them. Still about 10 costumes need to be made. So if you are a mother who is willing to make a simple tunic, that would be fabulous. We also need simple belts and skirts made. If you aren't a seamstress, but, you may know of someone who wants to help that would be great.
Wives- We seemed to have solved all the issues. You all are perfect.
Speaking Cast- We have stuff pulled. I know we are still looking for pieces.

On Tuesday children will have a rehearsal and I will have a sign up sheet for supervising during the final rehearsals and shows. I would like if every parent could sign up for at least 2 dates, because some parents are also performing. If you can do 3 or 4 I will be happier than a fat kid with cake.
The final rehearsal calendar will be posted soon.

Some changes in the rehearsal for next week
I mistakenly put guards instead of children on tuesday's rehearsal. So if you can have the children come, that was totally my bad! I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off the past two weeks, but we have had really good rehearsals and many of the major problems are getting resolved! So we do have more edits for next weeks schedule.
Tuesday will remain as planned with the children coming rather than the guards, unless you were a guard that was specifically named, you still come.
Wednesday- The guards will still come, to try on costumes and get some direction, they will be done by 7.
We also need Louis and the Prince to come from 6-7 to work on your song. Anna and the King if you could come from 7-8:30 that would be great.
Thursday is the same as originally posted, Anna and the King from 6-8
Saturday will not be everyone. We will be doing the schoolroom scene again, so Anna, King, Tuptim, Lady Thiang, Wives, Singers and Children. From 9-12.
I am so sorry for changing everything all the time but some good news, we got the soundtrack! We will pass around the sign up sheet for shirts during this week so come prepared with shirt sizes that you need. Reminder they cost $6 a shirt. If you don't have rehearsal this week or will not be here just email me what you need and give me the money when you can. I would like to order this as soon as possible.
Thank you so much for all your hard work, this show is going to be 'something wonderful'!
