FAQ’s about Rehearsals & Performances
When and where are rehearsals?
Spring Show Rehearsals are Thursdays and Mondays, 5:45-8:15. We’ll add Fridays starting on 4/25. See the calendar for more details.
Fall Show Rehearsals are on Thursdays, with other days added as needed (especially for tech rehearsals).
Do I attend every rehearsal? Not all performers are called to each rehearsal. Directors are busy planning which characters will need to attend which rehearsals. We intend to use the performer’s time wisely at rehearsal.
What is and isn’t allowed at rehearsals? The rehearsals are generally closed to parents, siblings, and guests of performers. It’s ok to peek your head in for the last few minutes of rehearsal if you want to see how things are going (as long as you do not distract the performers), but we ask parents not to come expecting to sit through the rehearsal unless they are there helping. Space is limited and we have found performers sometimes have difficulty focusing with their parents in the room. For Sr. Cast members, it is always a good idea to bring homework to work on during possible downtime. Cast Members, please don't use cell phones or electronics during rehearsals. It’s important to wear comfortable clothes you can dance in.
Will there be a double cast? There will likely be 2 separate casts for the Spring Show.
What if I have to miss rehearsals? Attendance at rehearsals is crucial. Because this is a group venture, it is inconsiderate when one person in the scene isn’t present to rehearse. If you must miss a rehearsal, please let the producer know. Missing a rehearsal while the group is learning a new number may result in the performer being dropped from the number. It is not practical to constantly re-teach numbers. If you miss more than 2 rehearsals, you can be dropped from a number and ultimately the play w/no fee refund. Be present at all rehearsals you are asked to attend.
Where will we perform? The fabulous performing arts center at Rosemont High School.
