CU! Newsletter: Session 3, Week 2

Hey there, CU! Campers and Camper Parents!

We have successfully completed week #2 of Camp! Can you believe that next week is the show? Crazy! Please remember to buy your tickets downstairs at the Box Office because they are selling faster than you can believe. Note that the show schedule is different than in past sessions: there two shows on Saturday (1PM & 3PM) and none on Friday.

*Last Friday, our costumer asked that the kids provide their base costumes.  Here is the list:

–Base: black t-shirts, black leggings for girls and black pants for boys, black shoes

Please let Kate know if you have any questions/concerns about this!

 

*On Tuesday, August 16th, the main entrance to Metropolis will be blocked off once again due to it being repainted. Please use the Metropolis Ballroom Entrance off of Vail St.- this time it will be accessible!

*On Friday, we will be having a pizza lunch for the Campers, so please provide $2 for pizza and bring a drink if you wish to take part in the pizza lunch. Make sure the $2 is in an envelope with your child’s name on it, and please bring it to Camp no later thanWednesday. If your child does not wish to have pizza, he/she may bring their own lunch as usual.

*Saturday- Kids will need to arrive no later than noon. You will need to sign them in as usual downstairs, and then they will head up to the dressing rooms. The first show will be over around 2:15, and at that time, the kids will head back upstairs to get ready for the 2nd show. We ask that all pictures be taken after the 2nd show. The next show will end around 4:15, and at that time the kids can go out to the lobby in their costumes so you can take pictures. Then they will need to change to their regular clothes soon after. You may sign them out once all of this is done, and make sure to grab a t-shirt!

*And now a word from our Director, Laura:

Week 2 of Curtains Up! Camp has flown by and our show is coming together quite well.  The students have continued their dance, drama, and music classes, as well as applied that learned technique to several rehearsals for our production of Once Upon a Mattress.  Together the cast has learned all of the song and dance numbers as well as the blocking for the whole show!  The students are “off book,” or memorized, and even did a whole run through of the show on Friday.  The energy and enthusiasm is great, and we can’t wait to incorporate the technical elements next week in order to produce our fantastic performance for a full audience.
Thanks,
Laura

 

As always, please feel free to email me with any questions. Thanks for all you do and have a great weekend!

Kate :)
