Fort Worth Jr. Woman's Club Spring Show

Happy Thursday Spring Showers!!!!!

So this has been a CRAZY week, but SO much has been accomplished for the show that it has been well worth it! Just a few notes, reminders, and action items for this Saturday’s rehearsal!!! 

Please read this ENTIRE email….there is a lot of important stuff in here! J 

1. Ad Sales – I am looking forward to seeing how many ads come in this weekend!! I challenge each of you to turn in at least 1 Ad (even if it is just a Business Card size!) Remember we CANNOT do the show if we do not hit our ad sales goal! Too much work has gone into the show for that to happen, but we need everyone’s help to reach that goal! For every ad you turn in this Saturday your name will go into a drawing for a fun prize….I will also announce last weeks winner at the Business Meeting!  Ad sales deadline is SATURDAY, FEB 13th!!!
   
2. Receptions – Don’t forget to bring your donated wine for the Spring Show reception!! We found out this week that Coors is graciously donating the beer again this year, so that is cover but we need wine and lots of it!!  It doesn’t have to be expensive wine….I cleaned out my wine cabinet and came up with 6 bottles that I was willing to donate!
   
   
3. Script – I know I sent out the “final” script earlier this week…I lied, the one attached to this script is the FINAL one! We have had a few cast changes this week and had to tweak the script because of it. Also if you will notice this script is set up with page breaks between each scene so the page numbers are different than before. This is the script that rehearsals will be run off of… PRINT IT OUT….BRING A COPY WITH YOUR LINES ALREADY HIGHLIGHTED TO REHEARSAL!!!!!
