Thank you so much for taking time out of your week to spend with us learning about The Tempest and Shakespeare. Maria and Lucas were very impressed with all of you as was I. Casting a show is never easy. If you don’t see your name below, please do not be discouraged. We want to see you all auditioning for future shows at East Ridge. If you still want to be involved with the show you are welcome to join us for the tech meeting tomorrow after school in the choir room.

For those who where cast our first rehearsal will be tomorrow after school in the theater. We won’t go any later than 5pm. For those of you who cannot be at the meeting, please pickup your scripts in the theater office. We will begin in earnest the Tuesday after spring break. Please check the rehearsal schedule and additional information about the production.

Are you afraid of Shakespeare? No need! We are excited to welcome members from the Youth Shakespeare Company to put on a workshop to take the fear away! We will be learning about performing Shakespeare and about The Tempest. The workshop is open to any ERHS student interested in attending even if you aren’t auditioning for the spring play.

Thank you to everyone who expressed interest in tech crew for the one-act. We had more people interested in participating on the performance crew than the one-act rules allow us to bring with us, so I had the difficult job of narrowing it down. Please know that I want all of you to be involved in some way, even if you aren’t able to travel with the production, so please join us for set or costume construction. You can find the dates/times we are meeting on the calendar.
