NW15: Dirt Tracking



AHEM!!!

Despite the mandate that the choir room be spotless, it was not.  Dirt was left all over the place...and so, to keep the privilege of having a greenroom space at all, we will now do the following.

ONE
You may only be in socks or barefoot in any room designated as "the greenroom" going forward.

TWO
You may only put on costume shoes right next to the doors that enter the theatre.  So if your entrance is SL by the shop.  You will travel to that entrance in socks (or street shoes if you feel unsafe in socks / barefoot) and put on / change shoes right at the door before you enter.  You will then remove them the second you are out.  

THREE
Crew must all have two sets of shoes, designating "dirt shoes" for work on the stage and then "regular shoes" to be put on after work.

FOUR
Actors may not be on the stage at all unless in their costume shoes going forward.

NOTE:  Given this notice is going out today, during school hours, we may not achieve full compliance until tomorrow insofar as multiple crew shoes, etc... 

BOTTOM LINE:  no more tracking dirt.

NW15: Schedule Reminder



Hey all!

Below is a reminder of the schedule.  It has been published for weeks - but just in case...look it over in a fresh blog post.

Each day will look a little different.  Start times for runs will be different. And when possible, we will release early.  So it's a good idea, when you can, to have someone on call if you need a ride.  Or...plan to stay and work on homework and other obligations.  

Food will be provided each day this week.
4/29, 4/30 5/1, 5/2 - around 5:30p

NW15: TECH SCHEDULE - AS PLANNED



TECH

Call:  10:00a
Meal Provided: 3:00p

Actors - when you arrive, check in with Stage Management so they can mark you present.  Then immediately go to the dressing rooms for fittings.

If possible a dress run (no make-up) will follow cue-to-cue.

Actors may watch tech if completely quiet.  Please use down time to work on homework or other obligations if you need to.

We will assess mid-day and see if an early release for some - or all - is possible.  But plan on staying.

NW15: Clothes and Dirt!



ACTORS
Keep in mind - the stage is now actual dirt.  This will get on your clothes.  It comes off pretty easily, but still - it's a good idea to wear "rehearsal clothing" and to change before and after rehearsals. 

NW15: Rehearsal Cancellation


Due to actor illness, Keepsake rehearsal is canceled today, Monday 4/22, 4p - 5:30p.

NW15: Costume Action!!!



ACTORS!

Please see the below message and take actions quickly!

The mood board link is below.

"Actors and crew:  Please take a look at the mood boards, not only for your character but maybe someone else’s character.  These are suggestions of looks and have some flexibility (If I listed something as black, dark grey might still be ok etc). If you have something you think might work, please either bring it in or take a picture of it (you wearing it if it is your costume) and email it to:  jpeerenb@pps.net by Wednesday at 3:30.  Due to the tight time line, if I don’t get either the garment or a picture of it by then I will have to assume I need to buy it.  Feel free to email me with questions.
