Reminder about costume fittings on Saturday, April 4

Dear Cast and Parents,

Exciting News!  We will be having a costume fitting for some characters on Saturday, 4/4 at the Louisville Arts Center on Grant Street. 

 

Below are the characters who are being called for costume fittings on Saturday, April 4th.   

12:30-12:45:   Staff and parent volunteers set up the 3 costume stations.

12:45-2:00:   Guard Chorus and Captain:     Station 1-  (Cast A & B)

Duloc performers and Greeter:  Station 2 (Cast A & B)

Big Rats:      Station 3 (Cast A & B)

 

2:00-3:00:   All Fairytale Characters including Gingy and Pinocchio, Teen Fiona, Young Fiona, Pied Piper:    Station 1 (Cast A &B)

3:00-3:15pm: Clean up 

Details:  

• This is a fun time for the actors - very exciting to see everything coming together!
• This is a costume heavy production and we would like everyone who can possibly make it to come to this costume fitting day.  
• Those characters who are not called have already been fitted or will be fitted once their costumes are completed.  
• There is not a “make up” date for these fittings and actors who can not attend will have to be fitted close to production time.  This could create an inability to alter some costumes.  
• Please come at the time your character is called.

 

Parent Volunteers Needed!!

Our costume director, Chris Harris, will need at least 6 parents to help organize and fit the costumes onto the actors from 12:30-2:15pm and 4  of those parents to stay from 12:30-3:15pm.  CenterStage truly appreciates your time and this should be a fun experience.  

Please respond to Elizabeth Goodrich at:  thegoodriches@q.com today to volunteer!  (It will be fun!)

Thanks for your help.

Potluck, Set Painting, and Prop Building Sunday

This Sunday (3/22) we aren’t having a regular rehearsal, but we would love it if everyone who is going to be in town/available would come to the Arts Center from 1-6 and help us paint the set/build props. We need as much help as possible so that we can make some good progress. This sort of event is also a great opportunity for us to get to know you all better and for you to feel more involved with our CenterStage community. We have such limited rehearsal time and are always working hard to make the show as good as possible, but it’s nice to have laid back opportunities like this one to have some fun while we get work done.

From 1-2pm, we’ll be starting off with a potluck lunch. We want to make sure that we end up with a variety of different foods, beverages, etc. If you are able to come, please visit this page and RSVP with what you plan on bringing. 

Looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible on Sunday!

Reminder about time change and info for 3/8/2015 rehearsal

Dear Shrek Cast and Families!

Don't forget to "Spring" forward tonight!  That means we lose an hour and tomorrow's rehearsal will come that much faster!

As you can see from the schedule, tomorrow's rehearsal is for Act 2 Sc 1-5, and I wanted to clarify that actors who are NOT in those scenes do not need to come to tomorrow's rehearsal.  This is the only remaining rehearsal where we list just CAST A or CAST B and don't mean everyone in that cast.

Specifically by cast we NEED these characters to attend:

CAST A 1:00-3:00 and CAST B 4:00-6:00

Fiona

Little Rats,

Big Rats,

Pied Piper

Bluebird

Shrek

Donkey

Farquuad

Captain of the Guard

Thelonius

Guard Chorus

Duloc Performers

3 Blind Mice

3:00-4:00p

Fiona, Donkey, Shrek and Fireflies from both casts.

If you are a Fairytale character and are not also one of the above characters you do not need to attend tomorrow's rehearsal.

Let me know if there are questions!  Keep up the good work!

Jeanie and Taylor
