Nitty Gritty Day #2 – Sunday, April 19 – 12-6pm
Whoa! It is amazing that we are this close to opening Annie! There is still lots to do for everyone – painting, building you name it. Wear your grubbies and bring your tools. This is really the last chance we have to get the sets done! There will be a sign in sheet so be sure to sign it to get credit for your hours. Check in with Jeanne, Denise or Kevin when you get there for a job to do. All cast is called on Sunday from 12-6pm so drop your actor off and head over to the warehouse.

Publicity
Posters Are Here!
Help us get the word out on our great show so that we can fill the house!  Posters will be available at both rehearsals this weekend.  There will be a sign-up sheet so you can record the number of posters you are taking and where you are planning to put them up (Example:  Laurel Street in San Carlos).

 
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!

 
Ads
This is the last weekend to put an ad in the program. Approximately 2000 people see the program during the run of the show. The ad form is online at . You can turn it in at rehearsal by April 19. The ad must either be ready to scan or ready to download. You can email an electronic copy of the ad to orphanupdate@yahoo.com.


 
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. Remember, if you have not done any volunteer hours and you are saving it for House Duties and Chaperoning, you need to work 6 shifts to fulfill your 25 hour volunteer commitment. 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 a BIG TICKET raffle prize 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. If your actor is having trouble getting started, here are some questions he/she can answer to get started:
What other plays have you been in?
What did you like best about being in the production?
What is your favorite thing about acting?
In addition to acting, what other activities do you participate in?
Is there anything else you would like others to know about you?

 
Please send the bios to the bio email address anniebios@yahoo.com.


 
If you did not take your head shot with the photographer at rehearsal, please bring a 4x6 black and white photo to rehearsal. Deadline for photos to be turned in is April 19.
