6	Rehearsal Schedules are provided to all actors, Rehearsal can span from 6 -- 8 weeks.
7	Please review the cast information on this web site.
8	Please be sure to have transportation available after rehearsal so students are not hanging around the school waiting for a ride.  Usually at 6:00 P.M.  During the last couple of weeks of rehearsal, there may be reason to hold actors until 7:00 P.M. - 8:00 P.M.
9	During rehearsals, students are encouraged to work on homework assignments or help tutor fellow students.  If no homework, they can read a book, possible to help with set construction or painting, or just set back and be quiet on the set and have a moment to just relax.
10	FOOD & DRINKS: Students are encouraged to bring a snack and water during rehearsals.  However, on the main dress rehearsal evenings, the theatre association will provide food and drinks right after school.  Your help with this occasion is important as we usually have over 60 people to feed. The reason for this activity is because all show personnel are required to be at all dress rehearsals. These rehearsals will last for about 4 to 5 hours while many final adjustment are addressed during the dress rehearsals.  Usually this involves about 3 nights. prior to opening night of the show. The Booster Parent Group is providing Water in the Classroom, but we need the small 5/6oz drinking cups.
