post-potluck partum and newest favorite-est quote

Thanks for coming to the potluck! It was great re-connecting with some familiar friends and meeting others for the first time. And weren't those parents grand to play around like that! 8 signed up for costumes and 8 for set; pretty amazing:)

Tuesday is our first dancing day; Deb has fun lined up for you! Tuesday is also a major set day.

Maybe not everyone is aware of this blog yet, so please mention it to others to make sure they know.

Soon we must all face the choice
between what is right what is easy.
But remember this, you have friends here.
You're not alone.

Skits?

Wanna be in the Talent Show? I've been granted a limited number of slots for quick skits -- like the "bell ringers" last year. There are THOUSANDS of them out there, you just gotta dig a little bit. . . here's a nudge in the right direction. . . See me ASAP if interested in entertaining 1600 of your peers:)

Costume and Set Crew

If you know of people interested in either, please encourage them to stop by and see me!

SET: First meeting is Thursday after-school. See Samantha Stephens, Mr. Swegarden, or Mr. Decker for questions; Samantha has prepared a slip for you!

COSTUMES
Hi Costume Crew!

Becky Comnick, our costumer, will be here on Friday, February 15, to start measuring and coordinating costumes. It would be great if you could be at our rehearsal that day to learn the process from the start!

Becky would like to get to know you and your skills as soon as possible. She has the following request:

“Ask them to send me a paragraph stating their name, grade, drama participation history and how they would like to help with costumes. Please tell them to include what costume, sewing, craft or makeup background skills they have. Finally, they should include what they want to learn working with me. “

Her email is msbecky@teacher.com and you should cc me at erdecker@rochester.k12.mn.us

Also on Friday is our “Meet the Director” potluck, where the entire cast, crew, and production team eats together in relative calm (compared to the chaos which will soon followJ). Please plan on coming and inviting your family, too! Stop by my room during the day on Thursday to let me know if you can make it and sign up for something to bring. Thanks for being willing to help out – we’re planning a fantastic show!

Spread the word all:)
