Hello Everyone!
I know we've all been talking about the Valentines Day thing, but we haven't really explained it...so, here's what we're doing:
We're selling little bags filled with candy kisses on Valentines Day. We would really like this to be a fund raiser and in order for that to happen we are asking that you all bring in and donate candy kisses for us to sell. I know that right now at Walmart the Valentine's Day kisses (red, sliver, red with silver stripes, and silver with red stripes) are on sale- 2 bags for 4 dollars.
It would be greatly appreciated if everyone could pitch in!
We are hoping to get together the night before Valentine's Day to put the bags together. We will not be having rehearsal because there is a Windfest concert, so it would be at regular rehearsal time and should be a lot of fun!
I will be posting a sign up sheet on the Proscenium board for people so sign up to sell during their free periods. Based on our last bake sale, we need more people to offer!
If you buy candy, please bring it in to any rehearsal, and we'll store it for you!
Thanks again and please help out!!

Thank you all so much for all the books we already received!
If you weren't able to bring books, or just forgot, we will be collecting again this Friday from 11-4 in the auditorium.
Thank you so much! Amanda
June 12, 2007 I have received many questions about the show and auditions for B&B and "Playing for Time", I am very excited about the reaction, I will post the questions and answers as they come up.
Is the song "A Change In Me" in the show?
Yes Will the auditions for both shows be going on at the same time...but like different groups?
Yes, the readings for both shows will be held by Mr. Benson in another room, once your vocal audition is completed he will handle the dramatic reading, selections will be there for site readings and then there will be a separate dance audition. Will "A Change In Me" come into play at some point during auditions?
Yes it will on the last day. Just wondering if Patti Murin will still be helping out at our workshop...that'd be extremely interesting.
Yes she is…it is called “Belle’s Boot camp…and it will be only for those wanting to audition for Belle (they can still audition for other parts, but if they have Belle in mind they MUST attend this workshop! Will there be general workshops for both plays?
Yes, There will be, but there will aslo be a "Beast" workshop similar to the Belle workshop and important guests to speak about "Playing for Time" Mr.Scarrone
