Our spring concerts are quickly approaching and I wanted to get some details out about the dress rehearsals and performances so you can put them on your calendar and make necessary arrangements to have your students where they need to be and when.  Tickets for the Secondary Spring Concerts on May 16^th and 17^th, at D. L. Parsons Theater, will be available for purchase at the front desk the first week of May.

4:15-5:30pm – FRIDAY MUSICAL THEATER, DRESS REHEARSAL

TUESDAY, MAY 16^th – (Dress Rehearsals and Performance)

This is always the most challenging schedule to put together as some of you are only in one of my performance classes and others of you are involved in all of them.  Each year I do my best to put together a schedule that will help keep those of you that are only in one of my classes from having to be at the theater all afternoon and evening.  However, this keeps us from ever being able to run the complete program straight through before we perform and that has proven a challenge.  This year I have decided to plan the rehearsal schedule so we might have a chance to do a run-through of the show.  This may require some of you to return to the theater more than once throughout the afternoon.  You may also plan to bring school work or reading so you can stay at the theater and remain productive when you are not scheduled to be on stage.

12:15-2:00pm – MS CHOIR (please arrive at the theater at 12:15 so we are ready to begin at 12:30)
