Cowboy boots and hats - actors and apprentices

I would like everyone who wears cowboy hats to begin using them in rehearsal on Monday. They will need to be tipped and taken off and generally used in acting as a prop at times.

I would like everyone who wears cowboy boots to wear them in the square dance rehearsal on Monday - you may need to bring extra or special socks so you don't get blisters.

I would like a list from Hannah and Lizzie on Monday regarding who still needs cowboy boots and/or hat and what size/color.

The Ranch Name

Hi everybody - parents and actors and apprentices,

We need to start over on the name of the Duke's ranch. Long story short - the paper I had written the ideas on was crumpled and burned. Boy that sounds like an elementary school homework excuse, but it is true. I do apologize.

So please post your ideas under here. Have a family brainstorming session.

It would be really cool if it had meaning to it - something to do with the play or William Shakespeare and incorporating the Wild West. Please resubmit any names from the previous list.

Comments from March 14

Great job on memorizing. I was very pleased working with the principles on Monday.

Has anyone seen the color wheel?

Boy oh boy did we ever miss you, Jesse and Megan. We had a very difficult time finding things and as we were leaving the parking lot after practice - Jeremy noticed the trailer doors wide open. WOW, that was close. Many, many thanks to Katie and Aliesia for filling in on the script and blocking book.

Great Job

I am so blessed this year to have a troupe of high schoolers stepping up to the plate with directing and creating:

Katie and Hannah Nelson - thanks so much for the great teaching of the Virginia Reel yesterday. It looks great. You all looked like you were having a great time and you should as it is a party.

Lindsey Vagnini and Sarah Gumness - I thank you ahead of time for your square dance teaching.

Dominic Boppre - Thanks for creating a wagging tail plus harness, a rope ladder, cleaning up each week and now a checkerboard.

Libby Siegmann - You are leading your team of musicians with enthusiasm and encouragement and I am most pleased with the result. Great job!!

Thank you all - it makes the directing job easier

Girls - bring this

Actresses bring your own comb that you could leave with us, if
possible. This would be helpful to us and them, so nothing gets spread
around.

Thank you so much, and God bless! Hair Apprentices

Urgent Need for computer work

We have the basic design, some of the line art/background and the text for the poster. It just needs someone to design it on the computer. If you have any skills in this area, please contact Mrs. Wells right away.
