Revised Schedule for Sunday, 2/20

Hi everyone!

Sorry it took so long to post the schedule for this coming Sunday, 2/20. We needed to wait until after Monday's rehearsals to see which songs needed the most work. We also scheduled full cast rehearsals for Monday, 2/21. We understand that it may be difficult to make this- however, we ask that you try your hardest! We only have 2 Sundays left after this week, so we want to get as much done as possible so we can have a fantastic show!

ALSO- unfortunately, the t-shirt company has changed the price for the shirts. The message got lost somewhere along the way; I just found out this morning. Shirts will cost $12 instead of $10. If you already paid $10, please just bring $2 to the next rehearsal. We will still place your order. If the change in price means you would no longer like a shirt, send me an email. I'll take your order off the list and refund your money. So sorry for the trouble!!!

Please bring any ads you may still have to Sunday's rehearsal. Ticket orders will be accepted until the last rehearsal before the show, but they will be filled on a first-come first-served basis.

Please bring your costumes this Sunday as well!!

Thanks a bunch- see you soon!!
