Hello everyone,
Sorry this email is coming so late in the week. I had planned on sending yesterday morning but it didn’t happen. Many of you might already know, but yesterday mid morning we lost our sweet Mr. Bogie. It has been an incredibly hard week and the week to come will be difficult as well for our family. We never thought when they diagnosed Mr. Bogie with lung cancer that we only had a week left with him. One of the things I wished was that he could play in the snow one more time and God granted that wish yesterday morning. When we left the vet the biggest flakes of snow started falling as we walked to our cars. Chris and I both just hugged each other and laughed, as we knew it was Mr. Bogie’s way of telling us everything was going to be okay. I want to thank all of you for your understanding, phone calls, emails, texts, and prayers….you have no idea how much they mean to Chris and I. Just bear with me over the next few weeks as the healing process will be a long one.
Enough emotional stuff…on to Spring Show! We WILL HAVE REHEARSAL TOMORROW as well as the ALL CAST CASUAL PHOTO! Below is the details you need for tomorrow. Please be at rehearsal and on time as we are only a month away still have a lot that must be done.
1. Ad Sales DEADLINE THIS SATURDAY!!!!!
· Please turn in all ad sales forms this Saturday.
· We are getting closer to our goal, but still have a ways to go. Please help us make the show happen by doing your part and selling ads!
· Amy James will be there to collect forms and payment etc.
· I have attached the form, but you can also download it or purchase your ad online at http://jwcspringshow.weebly.com/program-book-ad-sales.html
2. Circus Audition Dance
· If you are a circus act in the circus number or you have been cast as a “bad” circus act you need to be there at 8:30 am sharp to learn the Circus Audition number for scene 6.
· We need a few more “bad” acts so if you are an advanced dancer in Circus and would be willing to help us out please come at 8:30am.
· Characters that are required for this and need to be there at 8:30am are Jack, Karen, Time Fairy and Tooth Fairy
3. Circus Dance
· Everyone needs to be there (except the FWAFA kids) at 9:00am Sharp to run the big circus number.
· Advanced Circus dancers: we have some new pieces for you to look at/try on for your costumes. Please see Ruth or Alex about this. The items we have are first come first serve so if you haven’t completed your “goth circus costume” come see us…there is some cute stuff! Magic Etc also have some costumes for rent that might be cool for this number. If you choose to go that route the rental cost will be your responsibility, but you will get the JWC pricing ($30 for the entire week of the show)
· Circus Acts: We have some costumes on hold at Magic Etc for you to try on since we didn’t have things for all of you in the costume closet. We need you to go with Ruth to Magic Etc on Saturday after dance rehearsal. If you cannot make it at that time please schedule a time to go with Ruth in the next week to look at items. Spring Show will be paying for the bulk of the rental of these costumes, but if you do wear a costume that is rented for your circus act, we ask that you pay $10 towards it.
