Outlaws and apprentices and M. Carl

Outlaws - don't forget your ragged, holey jeans next week. They can be too short and just tuck into boots.

Makeup/Hair: Facial stubble on Caleb V. and Caleb H. Mustache on Luke and Mexican mustache on Rachel. Scar on Drew's cheek.

Hair: I would like to see Rachel's Mexican wig.

Accessories - Do all the outlaws have a red bandana? Sarah needs hers to go over her mouth like an outlaw.
Luke's 3 fingered glove needs to be finalized this week. He needs to practice with this. Luke and girls - bring several gloves to practice and let's get it figured out. Please show me.

Caleb V. needs to wear the eye patch in practices from now on.

Hats/shoes : Drew's moccasin needs to be opened up and a sock figured out and stuffed sticking out the toe - also duct tape needs to be changed. This may take some figuring to get it to stay on. Also the horned hat looks great the way you fixed it. Caleb H. said it hurt his head. Is it too small or does it need padding? You can also try it on Caleb V. I do want someone to wear it. But they will take it off for the fight.

Drew should probably wear both boots during the square dance to keep him in alignment!

Apprentices - Monday the 11th is your big day to work with outlaws - they will be with you or practicing on their own. They will not be as available the next week.

Outlaws: On Monday show me your written out confession of your "crime" - just a couple sentences...ie. My name is one eye Jack and I.... Rachel and Sarah I need to talk with you on the phone - more specifics.

Outlaws and the Rock - I realized the rock is not being used...here are a few starters...Caleb V. climb on it and then jump off it toward Abe during your attack.

Caleb H. - toss Ursula on the rock when you say "the runaway"

Whoever has Lance and Crab - toss them just in front of the rock instead of in the front.

Just before pardoning: all outlaws will gather around and on the rock.

You are well on your way!

T-Shirts

T-shirts will be available to order from Mrs. Stephany the last hour of practice today. They will be $8-10. She will know the exact amount today. Bring cash or make a check out to Anne Stephany. They need to be ordered next Monday, so that is absolutely your last chance. Bring money or a check today and fill out your order form. And maybe ask your mom what size you are!

Parking at Practice

Hey everyone!
While we're at Refinery, our parking is limited to the spaces to just in front of the part of the building we are in - so the 5-6 in front of the door. We can park on the opposite side of the building - go to the next parking lot off River Road and park against the building by the door that has the Refinery sign at the top. Please reserve the front lot to people who need to unload and directors. Thanks!

Bios

Reminder: Bios are due today! (Monday April, 4th) Remember to e-mail them to Mrs. Miller at bjmillerclan@charter.net or give them printed to Megan or Jason at rehearsal. Thanks!

Rehearsal Plan for Monday, April 4

Hello all,

Monday will be a bit different, so here goes...

Mr. Landers and Mrs. Wells will be working in the large room on the outlaw scenes 11 & 16 from noon to 2:00. If you are in those scenes, stay in the large room, so we don't waste time hunting for you.

Any actor who has carpooled early (noon) should report to Mrs. Newhouse who will be in the back narrow room past the bathrooms. Duke and Ursula - you have first priority, so please go back right away.

Those coming at 1:00 can get your posters from Katherine, report to Mrs. Newhouse, and then check with the apprentices and costuming to see if you are needed.

We will have devotions and a brief meeting at 2:00 or whenever Mr. Landers has completed his scene work.

Following that we will take 60 - 90 minutes to work all the scene changes. During that time all actors need to be in the large room. They will be unavailable to work with apprentices or costuming.

At the end of the day we will work scene 4 and 9.

Any extra time I would like Valentine and Thurio to work the checker game.

OK - See you all tomorrow! Mrs. Wells

A Note From Mrs. Boppre

We are looking to start painting the sets.  We will be trying a new technique that will require a bit of artistic ability and schedule flexibility.  I'm looking for students or adults age 14 and older to be on a list of possible painters.  We will be painting at the Komro barn again near Newburg (6375 Pleasant Hill Drive West Bend, 53095).  When I see the potential for good weather I will call for a team of about 3,4 or 5 painters to help us.  I will be working with each painting team to do a faux finish of 4 colors which will give our set the depth and textured look that Deidre has envisioned.  Please e-mail me directly your name and days that you are typically available or not available.  I will post dates for painting on the blog through Jesse or I may call you directly if the need is urgent.  It looks like Tuesday April 5th is our best upcoming opportunity so please let me know who would be available Tuesday.  Thank you, Dawn Boppre javascript:parent.wgMail.openComposeWindow('cmhotr@gmail.com') or 262-677-0715.
