Joseph Friday Night

Hi All,

We’ve been back and forth all afternoon but with the new forecast showing that it is not supposed to drop below freezing until much later in the evening, we will have rehearsal tonight from 7 – 9 in the rehearsal hall for the full company. Please be very careful – drive slowly. There is a much greater risk in hydroplaning tonight then there is in sliding on the ice. Please let me know if you don’t think you can make it.

Jennifer

P.S. The adult MEN in the ensemble do not need to come to rehearsal on Sunday – just the women. So Sunday’s rehearsal is…

Joseph Info

Hi All,

What a great rehearsal tonight! Thanks to all who slogged through the cold rainy night to get there.

It looks like we will have most of the brothers so we are adding a rehearsal for them tomorrow (Wednesday) at 8:30 pm in the choir room at Wesley Memorial.

Next rehearsal will be Friday from 7 – 10 for the full company in the rehearsal hall. It’s our last music only rehearsal so please make every attempt to get there. IF this next wave of winter weather hits we will adjust the schedule accordingly. We will also set the “corn dance” on Friday with Tiffany Carlson, Tori Galloway, Synthia Green, Cara Kiser, Morgan Kivett and Caroline Patterson.

Sunday’s rehearsal will be:
2:00 – 3:30 for Choreography for Mrs. Potiphar Dance- (Mrs. Potiphar, Wives & Male & Female Adult Ensemble)
3:30 to 5:00 for Angel In Heaven Hoedown – Dance Break (Brothers and Wives).

Children’s Ensemble – please check http://jenhpct.podomatic.com/ for podcasts of the most difficult sections of your music. The unison parts are not on there nor are the sections that you have down cold. But tracks for the divided sections (high and low parts) are on there. Music only – no vocals. This should be a good tool for you to rehearse your music with. You can listen to them on the website or download them to your computer or ipod.

I have a couple of things to confirm with Bobby tomorrow and I will send next week’s schedule then.

Be safe and warm!

Jennifer

Tuesday's Rehearsal is On!

Rehearsal for Tuesday - Music
7:00 - 9:00 - Full Company
9:00 - 10:00 - Solos if the weather allows us to stay.

Come if you feel that you can get there safely. Please email me at jblevins@hpcommunitytheatre.org if you don't think you can make it.
