The Sound of Music - Tech Week

Opening night is near, and we're getting ready to open the show on Friday night. The cast has been working hard for the past five weeks, and they have a couple of dress rehearsals to get ready for opening night. The set crew has been working on moving sets between scenes over the tech weekend, and the staff and volunteers are working on painting and finishing these items before opening night. The costume crew has worked on beautiful costumes for the show, and tonight is the first time the cast will be wearing these costumes. Lights and sound have been arranged, and the Stage Manager, ASMs, Light Board operators and Sound operators are working on learning the show in the technical rehearsals. Overall, it's amazing to watch this process of the final 10-12 days of rehearsals for a show at your community theatre. MCT continues to produce the finest in quality live theatrical productions in the Permian Basin due to our amazing volunteers - onstage actors, backstage volunteers and front of house volunteers. If you attend our 2011 holiday production, say "thank you" to our wonderful volunteers - without them, the show could not go on!
