Thank you to everyone who expressed interest in participating in the performance crew for The Big Meal. The one-act crews tend to be small because of limitations imposed by the MSHSL, and this production is no different. Please don’t feel discouraged if you didn’t make the performance crew. We still need plenty of students to assist in the production crew that will be assisting in set construction and possibly some costuming.
Performance Crew
If you haven’t turned in your signed application, please do so today. Also, the performance crew needs to fill out the registration form and submit the activity fee by this Friday. The forms can be picked up from Jimmy during set construction and turned into Jimmy then as well. Please let Jimmy know if you have any questions about the registration process.
Specific positions will be assigned as we get closer to the performances. Decisions will partly be made based on the amount of participation in set construction prior to that date and what you have indicated you are interested in.
Please see the tech calendar for the schedule so far.

WHAT SHOULD I PREPARE:
Students who wish to participate are asked to prepare 16-32 bars of a song they would use for a general audition. An accompanist will be provided. Please bring sheet music in the correct key. Treat this as if it is an audition–so dress and act appropriately.
Please indicate on your registration if you would like to participate in the audition. We will have a certain number of slots available and once those are full will draw names out of a hat at the workshop if extra time is available.
Students are also invited to attend and learn by watching if they do not want to be work-shopped.
