Genesians!
A few things in this post...
1. The cast of Into the Woods has been invited to attend a school performance of Mary Poppins at Dr. Phillips High School starring former Genesian Player, Maddie Montz! We are so excited to be able to support her, as well as current ITW cast member Luke Timmel, in their performance later in February. Information regarding this February 18th performance will be sent home with your child tomorrow.
We will need 6-8 drivers (depending on car capacity) to drive the students to the performance, stay for the performance, and drive them back to school afterwards. We anticipate being back to HF by 12ish.If you are fingerprint-cleared with the Diocese and you would be willing to chaperone, please email me (mfinnegan@hfcschool.com) and let me know how many seats you have in your car.
2. We discussed many things at our WONDERFUL read-through on Sunday. Please review with your cast member so you can be up to date on procedures regarding scripts, arrival time (15 minutes early is on time!), and how often they should be practicing.
All cast members should be singing Finale Part 6 and Curtain Call music DAILY with focus on the melody as well as enunciating the terminal sounds of every word. Singing absent-mindedly is not enough, and can even be harmful if they are practicing the wrong way. Please use the music pages in your script as well as the music (here's the link!) to practice correctly each night.
All cast members are expected to be off book (lines and music MEMORIZED) by Sunday, February 7th. Parents and siblings can be a big help! Offer to read the opposite lines, and please, by all means, nitpick until the lines are memorized exactly as they are written!
3. Rehearsal Schedule
We'll be focusing on learning the music and meaning behind the small-group songs. Meet in 5A for all rehearsals.
