WHAT TO BRING TO THE SHOWROOM & DRESSING ROOMS
To help our cast stay engaged and ready for their scenes, we will have a live stream of the performance available in each dressing room. This will allow all cast members to enjoy the show while also keeping track of their cues and entrances.
- M-2 actors: Recognizing downtime between their scenes, students are welcome to bring coloring activities or a small personal activity to help them remain calm while waiting for their big moments. NO TECHNOLOGY, PLEASE!
- 3rd-5th-grade actors: Since these students are in more of the show, additional activities are not as necessary.
- All students should bring a water bottle (water only; no other drinks or hot beverages).
- Snacks will be provided during the show. Please do not send in your own snacks, as we have carefully selected costume-friendly, non-residue options.
COSTUME & DRESS CODE REMINDERS FOR SUNDAY, MONDAY & TUESDAY
- Mechina – 3rd -grade students:
- For each show, please arrive in full costume, makeup, and hair. Since students will be coming and going in costume, you may want to bring an oversized shirt to wear over their costume if they go out for a meal between shows. Please be mindful of what your child eats in costume if you go out for a meal between shows.
