WERU interview a success!

Hopefully you all got a chance to listen to the live interview on WERU about Girl Power. It was an interesting experience. It got off to a rocky start when I couldn’t find my car keys to drive us all to the studio. Luckily I found them and we made it to the studio. After a tour of the building, we prepared our scenes. The girls were nervous, but excited. The interview seemed to fly by. We all had a great time. Amy (WERU news director) was very nice and helped keep us all calm. It was done with professionalism and style. Congrats girls and let’s hope we get tons of reservations! Listen at http://archives.weru.org/voices/voices-20210

Reservations have begun for Parents of cast/crew of Girl Power

January 13, 2010

Dear Parents.

I would like to explain to you about ticket reservations for Girl Power. For just the second time since I took over as THMS drama club advisor, we will be taking reservations for the winter  musical. When I directed Fiddler on the Roof we took reservations. It seemed to help us secure larger audience sizes. With the anticipation of having large audiences for Girl Power, reservations will help get parents of the cast and crew the best possible seats they can. It will also be a great learning opportunity for our two drama club captains, who will be learning about box office management.

So, here is how it will work. All cast and crew will receive 2 complimentary (comp) tickets. They can give them to family, friends, etc.

Those comps will only guaranteed seats if the recipients call the box office (338-3320) or

give the information to the cast/crew member to give to me.

The info needed would be name, phone, number of seats requested,performance date, and

that they are comps.

Check with your child as to which cast they are in if they have a lead, BATMAN or ROBIN. BATMAN performs Feb. 26/27 7pm and March 6 at 1pm. ROBIN performs Feb. 27 at 1p.m. and March 5/6 at 7p.m.

Just like any box office, reservations are on a first come, first serve basis. If someone arrives for a performance with a comp ticket but didn’t make a reservation, they will be given the best available seat.
You are encouraged to call as early as possible to make your reservations. As always, if you volunteer to sell tickets, concessions, or merchandise you will be able to see the production free of charge. As much as I would love to let everyone see the productions for free, we need to charge in order to have money to produce the plays.

If you have any questions, please feel free to call the box office or email me (jbannister@sad34.net).

Pre-Performance Party

In an effort to get the cast and crew to connect and feel a stronger sense of teamwork, as well as a way to have some fun, we will be having a pre performance party! It will be Friday, February 5th in the theater. We will have our normal rehearsal at 2:30. At 5:00 we will have a pot luck dinner, play theater team building games, and dance/party. The night will end around 8:00 p.m.
We are asking parents to provide items for the pot-luck dinner. These could include hot meal items (american chop suey, meatballs, mac-n-cheese), store bought items (soda, chips, veggies/dip), plates, cups, napkins, utencils, etc. Oh, and don’t forget dessert…If you can provide something, feel free to bring it in anytime after school gets out. We will not have access to the school kitchen, but we will be able to use the teacher’s room (fridge, microwaves).
Also, we will be having a publicity day the next day, Saturday Feb. 6 from 10 a.m.-1:00 p.m. We will make the big street signs for the school entrance and routes 1 & 3, hand out posters to hang around Waldo county, address postcards, and send out the press release to the multitude of radio stations, newspapers, and online community calendars.

It will be a big day, so anyone who can come for the whole time, just an hour, or even to stop and pick up posters to hang is welcome to attend.
