Oh happy Friday,

I just want to thank all of you who showed up yesterday for the practice on OPENING FOR A PRINCESS. We did finish out the choreographing and you folks are looking good. I do believe that you are crowded and that will be addressed soon, so hang in there. All in all, fantastic job to each and everyone. Attendance is a must now. If you can not make practices as scheduled, you MUST contact me to insure your placement in this musical. We only have 7 weeks to show time! Keep up this great effort.

Anyone who needs cd's or words to the songs, come see me asap.

Homework:

ENSEMBLE - practice singing OPENING FOR A PRINCESS while practicing the choreographing!!!! Hard to do!!!
Knights: Listen to SHY and learn your part.
Ladies and Princesses: Listen to SWAMPS OF HOME and learn your part.
LEADS- Learn words and lyrics up to scene 3 as No books anymore for these!!!! Work onward to the other scenes.
