Rehearsal Expectations
On Saturday, the staff covered expectations with the cast as well as had a read through of the script and learned some of the songs. If your actor missed rehearsal, please be sure they ask another member of the cast what was covered. I am including expectations once again this week in the news.
Every actor has been provided with a Willy Wonka script. Please have your actor put it in a three ring binder and bring it to rehearsal every week along with a pencil and a bottle of water and a snack.. No food is allowed in the LGI room so the snack should be wrapped and they can eat it at during their break.
If your actor did not receive a copy of the script, please have them see me (Danielle) to get one.
In order for rehearsals to run smoothly and the actors to get the most out of rehearsal please have your actor at rehearsal 5 minutes early. Also, anyone who has long hair must pull it back in a ponytail or clips and away from their face.
It is also important that actors wear closed toed shoes that are comfortable to dance in. This means no sandals, flip-flops or crocs! They should also wear clothing that is easy to move in. And remember girls, no bra straps or belly buttons showing.
If your actor missed this past weekend rehearsals or will be missing rehearsals in the future, it is his/her responsibility to learn what they missed. They will need to meet with their counterpart or another person in their ensemble group to learn with they missed. This must be done on their own time and not during rehearsal. This should be done prior to the next rehearsal. Failure for the actor to learn the number may result in them being cut from that number.
