Rehearse with Costumes Monday, Feb 7 and Tuesday, Feb 8

Hi everyone

As I mentioned on Saturday, we will be reviewing ALL COSTUMES while you are rehearsing on Monday and Tuesday, Feb 7 and 8.
Monday will only be lead characters and adults.
Tuesday will be everyone including ALL children's chorus's

For Monday's rehearsal on Feb 7, please note that if you are in scene 2-1 (Max, VT kids, Captain, Maria, Elsa and Franz)  You will need to arrive extra early to get into your costume for that scene so we can start at 6PM.
If other adult cast members can come early to help set up the stage that would be great.  We will be running ACT 2 (and 1-10 thru 1-13 ) with scene changes and those that are responsible for moving items should be ready to go too.

For Tuesday's rehearsal on Feb 8, please note that if you are in scene 1-1 (ALL CHILDREN and NUNS) you will need to arrive extra early to get into your costume for that scene so we can start at 6PM.  Again, if other adult cast members can come early to help set up the stage that would be great.  We will be running ACT 1 with scene changes and those that are responsible for moving items should be ready to go too.

Members of the costume committee and I will be making notes during both rehearsals about any costume problems or changes that may be required.  We'll let you know if there's any changes needed.

For some of you this will be a great opportunity to figure out how you're going to make some of your quick costume changes.  Don't worry, we will help you come up with a plan so that it all works out smoothly.

Here is my list of costume changes that will be EXTREMELY tight.  If you are on this list, start thinking about a plan NOW and let's discuss so that we can try it next Monday / Tuesday.
You may need someone from the costume crew or a friend or family member to help you out.

Scene 1-9 to 1-10

• Maria change from pajamas to play clothes.
• VT kids have about 1-2 minutes more than Maria but your change needs to be quick too.

Scene 2-1 to 2-2

• Captain and Maria changing into wedding attire.

Scene 2-2 to 2-3

• Liesl, Brigitta and Gretl changing out of wedding clothes into regular attire.
• Captain, Maria, Kurt, Frederick, Louisa and Marta have approx one extra minute but your change needs to be quick too.

To all of you......Have fun adding your costume to the mix as we BUILD THE SHOW!
