Good Evening All!

I apologize for my unplanned absence from rehearsal last night and look forward to being back with you next Tuesday.

I believe MikeM reviewed the August rehearsal schedule with you last night.? I've attached my version of the same info, which is posted on the blog site also. ?

Actors, please note the yellow highlighted info... you should be off-book for the first 2/3's of the play by Aug 7 and off-book for the full play by Aug 21.? Stephanie or I should be at rehearsals to provide lines when needed.? Please practice STAY IN CHARACTER while you wait for your line.

We do need to start thinking about the rehearsal schedule for September also.? Hugh had said he couldn't support Tuesday rehearsals into September, so I suggest we return to the original schedule of Sun 2-4, Mon 7-9, and Wed 7-9.? I believe this will be an impact to MikeK on 9/16 and for Hell Week.? If anyone else has a thought on rehearsal days, please share.

We're moving along nicely and hopefully in August we'll be able to pull final thoughts on Set, Props, Costumes, and Makeup together.? Please keep in mind that there may be various components we will not be able to finalize until early September, as the stage will be used for another performance that first weekend.? Ron will address lighting once the set walls are finalized and Jeff is working sound (overhead mics will be used, so remember to project your voice).? I've also not identified any sound effects needed, so if I've missed anything please let me know.

Thanks for everyone's help and please let me know if there are any questions.

I've posted a request on my neighborhood page....have just missed a few as they recently had a neighborhood yard sale. I'm hopeful.

I'll snag a stuffed animal surrogate in the meantime.

For the dog toy, 2 thoughts:? we may be able to find someone that was a pet's toy that we can lauder and remove a leg, if it wasn't already; or, I can get one off of Amazon and weather it until the play and remove one of the legs.

Again... good morning!

?

There are only a handful of props needed for this show, so we are going to try to do this without a specified Prop Master.? I think if all of us pitch in, we can make it work.? So, if you find you are in need of an item and we haven't discussed it with you, please call it out.

?

All props from past shows are cleared out of the green room.? The shelves are available for you to store (and leave) your props, costumes, or other personal items. ?

?

Hamm:

• Stancher (NEED: nasty looking handkerchief)
• Glasses (we have something to try on Sunday)
• Whistle (is the one Hugh is using ok, or does it need to look different?)
• 3-legged black dog (NEED: ?stuffed, medium size so audience can see it, well worn is best)
• Gaff (NEED: Do we want a staff with a hook on it?? What does this need to look like? The staff for Tiny Tim is currently on the stage to use.)

Clov:

• Telescope (Ron has purchased one)
• Alarm clock (Mike M has purchased one)
• Ladder (Ron will find a 2-step, small wooden ladder)
• Dog biscuits (Beth will bring some in)

?

Hamm's chair: ?NEED: VERY well worn, upholstered chair.? Looks bad, but is actually comfortable for Hugh.? Ron will put this on casters so it can be rolled around.

?

Nagg and Nell ash bins: ?Ron has a plan that we are going to experiment with.

?

Any other suggestions or info, please share.

Thanks

Good Evening All,

I've posted an update on the blog site showing the next couple weeks of rehearsals.? Please look under the 'Pages' on the right hand side for the updated July rehearsal schedule.

I've broken the script into 3 parts and we will focus on one of those parts at each rehearsal.? The rehearsal schedule identifies?which pages we will focus on during each rehearsal.? On Sunday July 28, we will do another full run-through.

For the next 3 rehearsals, I've added that we will work on blocking instructions as provided in the script for at least one of the passes through the lines.?

Monday rehearsal...

1.? These are difficult for MikeK to get to.? The part of the script I've scheduled to be addressed on Monday rehearsals includes several pages that are just between Hamm and Nagg.? If MikeK is not there at 7pm, we should start with the Hamm/Nagg section.

2. Question for Hugh, Sallie, MikeK, Stephanie: ?Since MikeK is having trouble with Monday rehearsal, are you available to change?Monday rehearsals to Tuesday 7-9pm?

Thanks

Hi All,

There are still several props that we could use help procuring.? If you have something that might work, please bring it with you to a rehearsal or send a photo.?

• 3-legged black dog: ?The one we have is OK. We would prefer one that is somewhat taller and has longer fur. ?
• 'Blanket' for Hamm's lap (possible ideas:?tapestry type of rug, afghan. Should be worn looking and a 'larger'-size to drape over Hamm's legs)
• Old metal sprinkle tin?
• Hamm's chair: Prefer an old-style office chair or an upholstered chair.? Would like it to swivel and roll.? Rolling is really important, but we could add casters to the legs

Thanks

Beth
