Weekly News Update And Important Info – 24 February

I hope you all enjoyed the half term break.

We’ve had a great turnout of students this week back for rehearsals and thank you to everyone for the enthusiasm in getting the show rehearsals progressing forward.
We will be rehearsing hard from now on with little disruption – fingers crossed – and therefore surge ahead to create a fantastic show for everyone.

Face coverings
We are not insisting on face coverings at the studio now that restrictions have been lifted and Covid cases dropping.
If anyone wants to protect loved ones and wishes to continue wearing face coverings, please feel free to do so and let the staff know.

Chaperones
We have an ongoing list of chaperones and parent helpers for the show and if anyone is still willing to help and hasn’t been put on the list yet, please email to let us know.
The Sunday performances are always low on help, and we need more backstage support due to parents wanting to watch the shows, so if you can help for either performance please get in touch.
I will organise a meeting at the studio soon for all helpers to inform every one of the requirements etc when helping in the theatre.
More details to follow.

Costumes
I am slowly working my way through the mountain of costume orders and deliveries so please bear with me on sorting this ready for costume handout day which will be at the end of March (date tbc).
Costs for all costumes and accessories will be advertised prior to handout day to make things slightly easier.
I will do this as soon as possible.

Programme help
I am looking for help with the programme for the show. If anyone has IT skills for creating and possibly printing the programmes and is willing to offer their services, please come forward and let me know.
In the past we have outsourced this, but the cost is high and out budget is tight.
If you can help, please email as I would really appreciate the support.

Prize giving
We will now postpone the prize giving event until the summer term and combine it with our Leaver’s showcase in July.

Uniform
Please remember to order your logo uniform in readiness for the theatre.
Orders are taken via the completed order forms which are available to pick up from the table in the entrance hall to Studio 1.

Thank you for your ongoing support and stay well.
Miss Haynes
