First Rehearsal...

Hey y'all...

Great read of Act I today! If you couldn't hear me (which I find impossible,) I found y'all very funny. That means I laughed... out loud... a lot. I appreciate everything you bring to the table as actors/artists, and it only gives me that much more material to work with. I think I have some funny ideas... I hope y'all eventually agree.

For those of you that might feel that you sat around today... Please know that what exists on the page is simply a blueprint. What you each contribute to the show (whether it be acting, dancing, singing, or a combination,) makes the show complete. Even though you might not have any lines, that is not what's important. It is what you bring to the table as an actor and artist that will make your role memorable, and part of the overall fabric of the show.

To the returning members of the company: I know that the upperclassmen will take the newbies under their wings. So... Upperclassmen, please make the new members of our company feel welcome and include them in your activities. You were there once, ya know? Your experiences over the past 1, 2, or 3 years can be helpful to our first time Musical members.

To the new members of the company: The company is happy to have you! As long as you be yourselves, y'all will fit in just fine! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to ask me, Ryan, Emily, or any Upperclassman for advice. I'm sure any of us would be more than happy to help.

I look forward to seeing all of you again tomorrow for Act II. See you then!

Peace.
