Cast List

The cast will be posted today at 4:00pm.  Originally, we had said it would be posted at 1:30pm, but it turns out we need a bit more time.
Thanks for you patience!

And off we go!

Thank you to the EIGHTY-FIVE students who courageously auditioned for our musical.  We were so impressed with your preparation and efforts.  Everyone should feel happy with how they performed.  Students who are needed for callbacks have received a personal invitation.  Callbacks will be held after school on Thursday, December 6th and will go until 5:15pm.  Our cast will be announced on the Rosecrest Performance blog on Friday, December 7th at 1:30pm. 

Details details!

AMAZING!  These kids are doing so well, and it is fun to see them shine!  Following are a few details and information that you may need to know...

TSHIRTS
If you missed out on ordering t-shirts and would like one, please fill out an order form at the concessions table.  If we have enough orders to meet the minimum order requirements, we will place an order.  Do not pay or leave money, we will collect funds only if an order is placed.  Cast t-shirts were $10, hoodies were $20.

COSTUMES
Please be sure you have paid for your costume.  If you haven't paid and need to know how to do this, contact the person in charge of costumes for your group.

PARENT HELP
First, THANKS YOU for all the hours that have gone into the show.  Everything looks amazing and it is a tribute to all of you and your willingness to make something great for our kids!! However, if you have found yourself unable to help out, remember your obligation to pay $20.  The contract to participate in the play outlines this responsibility.  We prefer your work to your money, so if you still need to find a way to help out, please let me know.  If you need to pay, please provide payment in an envelope marked with "your name" and "participation".

TICKETS
You and your friends can purchase tickets online up until 30 minutes before the show begins.  After that time, you may purchase tickets at the door.  If you still need to purchase tickets, we have learned that purchasing tickets on a desktop computer provides the most reliable service.  All functions of the website work well in this format.

PHOTOS
Special thanks to Meredith Ethington for taking our cast photos and live action photos of the shows on Wednesday.  You can access them at this link:  https://drive.google.com/open?id=1cWFdRd89mdpdTyguLZWFFECSRspARoL2

Stage Helper Needed

We have two wonderful moms who have volunteered to manage the stage.  They both would like the opportunity to watch the show, so we need a parent to come help direct things backstage.  This parent would need to be available for Wednesday night's performance and the Friday matinee.  Please text me if you are willing to help and see the show from a new perspective!

MAKE UP AND HAIR

MAKEUP

All performers need to have basic stage makeup applied before coming to dress rehearsals and performances.  Take some time to teach your performer how to apply makeup, this way he/she can take care of his/her self for dress rehearsals and maybe then feel confident enough for performances.  Create a bag for your performer’s makeup to keep with his/her costume.

Basic stage makeup includes the following (boys and girls):

• Foundation and powder
• Blush
• Eyeliner and mascara
• Lipstick

We do not have people available to apply makeup for the full cast.  We have many roles that require extensive makeup, and our makeup staff will need to attend to these performers.  Unless told otherwise, leads also need to come with basic makeup applied.

HAIR

Please find the instructions for hair below (by role):

Villagers:  

Abby Packer, Berlin Birth, Flower Sellers, Silly Girls, Olivia Morris, Hayden Johnson (milkmaid) will have half up half down with ribbon.  Please curl hair.

All other girls in villager chorus will have up dos.

Ainsley, the Lady with Cane will have a bun.  

Aristocratic Ladies will have up do and a hat.

Tysha is dressing as a boy

Be Our Guest:  Hats for all. Girls should have a tight, low, bun.

Wolves: Girls wear low ponytail. Boys have messy hair.

Narrators: Long curls and white head scarf

Enchantress: Long curls hidden under hood and then loose.

Belle: Low ponytail curled and Frenchie twist away from face-as in the movie with a blue bow and then yellow bow

Maurice: spikey powdered gray.

Gaston: pompadour.

Le Fou: slicked back.

Madame: wig

Babbette:  curled up do

FOOD AND BELONGINGS

Students need to bring a basket, bag, crate, something, to hold all their personal belongings during the show (makeup, costume, etc.).  Please mark all belongings with your performer’s name. Absolutely NO FOOD/CANDY will be allowed backstage, so please be sure your performer is well fed before coming to performances. Students should come with a water bottle to keep hydrated--it gets awfully hot backstage and onstage!

Parent Help Needed for Rehearsals and Showtimes

We need parents to keep kids on task during rehearsal and for our performances.  Please click this link to signup:  www.SignUpGenius.com/go/10C0C4CA4AC2BABFA7-parent2

Costume Check March 1st

We hope you are busy putting your costume together, but know that getting all of the pieces together is difficult.  Tomorrow, March 1st, we will have a costume check.  This will give you the opportunity to receive feedback on your costume and make changes if necessary.  It will also give you the opportunity to ask questions and work through issues.  Please bring your costume to rehearsal and we will call on students individually.  If you also would like to be there, you are welcome to come!

As a reminder, if your child has an individual role in the show, you received an email directly from me with instructions.  If your child is in a group or chorus, I have listed the individuals planning the costumes for that group below.  These individuals are responsible for communicating with each of you.  As I receive information from them, I will also post it on the blog under links in the sidebar.

Thanks!

TICKETS to Beauty and the Beast, Jr.

We are excited to try online ticketing this year, combined with assigned seating. Yay!  No more standing in line for hours!  However, we are also terrified that it will not go well.  We hope this information will help you have the best experience possible with our new plan.  Tickets will go on sale Friday, March 2nd at 6:00PM.

INSTRUCTIONS

• Go to the following website:  https://rosecrest-performance.ticketleap.com/beauty-and-the-beast-jr/
• Choose the show time you wish to attend and click GET TICKETS.
• For most devices, you have two options from the next screen.  On the left, you can select the section you wish to be placed in from a drop down menu.  On the right, you can select “Choose Your Own Seats”.  “Choose Your Own Seats” is the best option if you want to be able to specify where you want to sit.  Look carefully for this option.
• Different devices have different capabilities with the website.  Some devices cannot select seats individually and seats will be selected for you based on what is still available (seats are prioritized front to back with preference to the middle aisle).  Most browsers  for desktop computers have the capability to self-select seats, so order tickets from a desktop if this is important to you. A map of the cafegymatorium is below to help you determine which section to choose if you can select a section, but you are unable to select a seat.
• Wheelchair accessible seats are available.  If this is your need, please look for these sections.  Please leave these seats available for our patrons who need accommodation, unless no other seat is available.  The larger cost for wheelchair seats covers the three chairs next to the wheelchair seat.  This ticket allows up to four to enter.
• Your printed ticket will allow you entrance into the show, so you must PRINT and present your ticket at the door.

Thank you for your patience as we are learning this new system for ticketing. Remember to share this link with your friends and family so they can come enjoy our show!

Flatware Needed for Human Again!

We are halfway there! Rehearsals have been going great. The cast has been absolutely fabulous to work with!

We are in need of some Flatware ("Be Our Guest") to join in with us on "Human Again" in scene 9. Anyone from  " Be Our Guest" that is  able, please come to a couple of extra rehearsals next week on Monday from 3:45-5 and Tuesday from 3:30-5 You would be most welcomed. You will still be flatware so no extra costume is needed!

Thanks again to everyone for all your hard work!

Rehearsal today (February 5th) is all cast.

We realized the schedule was vague about who should be at rehearsal after school.  Act One includes the full cast, so please plan on having your performer stay after school.  Sorry for any confusion...and spread the word!
