TENTATIVE SCHEDULE:
IMPORTANT! All children’s roles will be double-cast to help alleviate the time commitment required.
For example, we will alternate the two casts for all evening rehearsals, so your child would only be required to attend every other night. Additionally, performance weekend will also rotate as follows:
Red Cast November 15 thru 18
Green Cast November 23 thru 25
Red Cast November 29 thru December 2
Green Cast December 6 thru 9
