Final Rehearsals For Hairspray

Hello my beloved Team Harispary cast & crew!

Congratulations on a spectacular opening weekend!! But you know me, there is work to still be done to ensure that we deliver equally (if not better) shows this weekend :). That said -- here is the schedule below.

Please note that these are serious rehearsals -- no fooling or joking around. You'd be surprised how much you might not remember even after only a few days. Plus, we will use these rehearsals to put Josh and Christian in as Spritzer and IQ for the Friday 3/18 performance (Scott Cope has a college audition that day, but will be back for closing night), so we owe it to them as a cast and crew to make sure they have a rehearsal that is as close to performance level as possible.

We have received incredible feedback on the show -- we got there because of the dedication and hard work necessary. Let's keep it up this week so we really go out on top!! Thanks.


Thursday 3/17 1 -2pm

Speedthrough of scenes for :Tracy, Link, Edna, Wilbur, Penny, Seaweed, Velma, Amber, Prudy, Spritzer (Josh) IQ, (Christian), Corny Collins, Motormouth, Little Inez, Seaweed's entourage (MEN ONLY NO BEATNIKS) Holly as the matron, Dynamites and Council Members in ROLL

Odds and Ends

Hi everyone! Don't forget that Wednesday, Thursday and Friday I will be selling tickets to the cast and crew. They are $5 for students $7 for seniors and $12 for adults. You can pay in cash or check, checks can be made out to "GHS drama club". Message me with any questions!

Please, come to the theatre without any makeup on.

Everyone will need to bring the following:

Wipes: Ponds makeup remover is the best… baby wipes are for baby bottoms

Towel: After using the Ponds wipes, you need to rinse your face…
They have “soap” on them.

Girls: You must bring your own black mascara
All girls (AND EDNA) need to bring fake eyelashes AND glue.

On March 3rd, you will be provided with an applicator for the base makeup… it is your responsibility to keep this with your makeup supplies and bring it to all rehearsals the week of March 7th through the end of the performances. Replacement cost will be $5.00 if you do not bring the applicator with you or if you lose it.

Please note that street makeup is not feasible for a stage your size. Theatre makeup will be provided.

Bring these items in some kind of a bag/container with your name on it.

Take care of your skin. This means washing your face after every rehearsal/performance and using a moisturizer. The combination of the lights, makeup and sweat is the perfect breeding ground for acne… You can avoid this by being sure to wash after the performance and moisturize your skin (this includes boys!).

DO NOT USE THE THEATRE MAKEUP PROVIDED IF YOU HAVE SKIN ALLERGIES
OR ANY KIND OF INFECTION!

If you have any questions/concerns, please email Ms. Jenn at jlomakeup@yahoo.com or Kinga at kibak@att.net

Costume Parade on Friday please plan to stay past 6 and bring all costume pieces!!!!! Please also start wearing your shoes for rehearsals.

if you have not yet ordered your Hairspray t-shirt, you may do so whenever. Just find me and give me $15 with a bit of paper that says your name and the size you want (if you can't be bothered to get a legit form) It's on a first come, first serve basis -- the t-shirts are in already, but the sooner you order the more likely you are to get the size you want. (Soon, please!)

PINBACK BUTTONS are available if you come to talk to me -- Matt and I can answer any questions about buttons :)
Thanks!

Costumes

If you have not been fitted you must do so now!

There will be a fitting on Thursday and you must sign a paper at rehearsal this week to let us know who is to be released early from rehearsal in order to get a costume!

Following the fittings on Thursday will be the Costume Parade on Friday. This will be added on to the already scheduled rehearsal so expect practice to get out around 7 or later. Thanks!
