We've reached the final week of rehearsals for our 2011 opening musical - OKLAHOMA. We open a week from tonight, and the next eight days will be filled with rehearsals and hard work to get ready for the opening. The cast has had a good week of work improving from our "stumble thru" on Sunday afternoon, and last night's run thru on the stage was a positive step forward. We'll run the show again tonight, and start technical rehearsals on Saturday by adding lighting, sound and the scenery. We'll have another actor rehearsal on Sunday afternoon, and another tech on Sunday night. Finally, we have dress rehearsals Monday through Thursday and then the opening on Friday night.
This is always an exciting part of the year, since it's the beginning of a new season. We recently had auditions for THE NERD, our first production in 2011 in Mabee Theatre II. They start rehearsals on Sunday in preparation for their opening in March, and soon the Pickwick Players will hold auditions and begin rehearsals for THE MAGICAL WORLD OF THE BROTHERS GRIMM. There are lots of volunteers needed for our opening musical backstage, and we have auditions coming up for HAIRSPRAY and the 2010 McLaren winner THERE'S NO JUSTICE JUST COURT COSTS, so become involved in your community theatre!
