Set Crew
There is still LOTS to do. Every Saturday from 11:30am-3:30pm and every Sunday from 1pm-4pm, construction will be taking place at the warehouse. EVERYONE IS WELCOME! If you did not sign up for set crew but really want to build, paint or just want to use power tools, you are welcome. Bring your tools if you have them. There is nothing like sitting in the audience and looking at a beautiful set and thinking "I made that!". When you get to the warehouse, look for Jeanne and she will get you a task.
Publicity: Help needed to distribute show flyers in private schools
We will get show flyers out to the public schools in San Mateo County through the Publicity Committee members, but will need help with private schools in the area. If your child attends a private school, can you please pick up some flyers at rehearsal this weekend to distribute to your school? There will be a stack of show flyers bundled in 25's as well as a sign-up sheet to indicate how many you are taking and for which school. Flyers will be available both Saturday and Sunday. Thanks in advance for your help getting the word out on our great show!

House Duties & Chaperone Committee
There will be a large Sign Up board outside of rehearsal for the next few weeks. If you are on these committees, please sign up for shifts.

House duties includes the concessions, flowers, ushering and the raffle table. Chaperoning includes working back stage with the actors, helping to keep them quiet, get them changed from one costume to another if they need it and calling the cues when it is time.
Raffle Prizes
We need prizes for the raffle. If you have any connections to prizes that would be donated for the raffle, please solicit them. Remember, we are non profit so it is a tax deduction!
Bios & Head Shots
It is time to have the actors write their bios. Bios should be one paragraph and written in third person. For example, Jane is 7 years old and Annie is her first e.T.c. production. In her free time, Jane likes to…. You get the picture. Please send the bios to the bio email address anniebios@yahoo.com.
