Great opening weekend!

CONGRATS my lil Seussy creatures!

I am very proud of my cast & crew...and you should all be proud of yourselves. You did a great job, but don't slack off! The buzz is out there - now we need to impress three more audiences!
And sell sell sell! We have an amazing show that shouldn't be missed!

WEDNESDAY, JULY 13
6:30 BRUSH-UP
Please be there & ready to run-thru the show at 6:30. We will be running lights & sound to give the tech crews a review as well. No costumes are necessary unless you have a quick change.
Also, no orchestra. Just MB on the keys.
I am all for having "lots of good fun that is funny" but please keep goofing around during the Brush-Up to a minimum. Use it as a refresher for all your songs & dances.
