Good afternoon everyone!
Tomorrow is the start to a busy but amazing week of performing!
I am posting to give some reminders to clarify and get us on the same page going forward!
~After the weekend - those of you who brought your pants or shoes home after Friday - YOU MUST BRING THEM TOMORROW - MONDAY and keep them with costumes for performance week!
~PACK A LUNCH to eat in the car on Monday. There is absolutely no time to stop and no place to stop even if there were time.
~Wear deodorant and bring it in your backpack to re-apply
~Apply make up before your arrive and bring it in your backpack!
~ On Monday after the afternoon performance - inform the costumers if you have t-shirts, socks, shirts, or blouses that need to be washed due to smell or make up stain
~ If there is an emergency or you are running late - be sure to contact Jennie (262)-353-1770 and/or Becky (414)-412-6389
If a student is sick you must notify Jennie - she will instruct you to still bring your student but will work on special arrangements as needed.
~Parents - you choose transportation for your students. Be sure to arrange that now! On Monday your students need to travel from Mountain Top Academy to St. Johns Lutheran. They need your permission to ride with teen drivers. (Start thinking ahead as they need arrangements and permission all week!)
~Students! We spoke on Friday about our afternoon school performances needing to be abbreviated due to timing with the school's end of day. Here is a review.
Below is for the St. John's Performance & Thursday's performance at Ozaukee Christian.
We will omit the Ps. 27 song/words. Drew and Gideon will exit downstage after they've finished their historical lines.
The intermission will be 3 minutes rather than 5.
Be ready for Act 3 to start!
Hadassah will not enter on Page 62 - that biblical scene will be omitted. When the boat horn blows - the people on the boat rise and pick up the scene on page 65. Just like we practiced on Friday evening. Look over the page of edited lines.
There will be no bow. You could be instructed to line up as the school students exit the gym to meet and greet as they walk by.
~So with all that communicated - we prepare for tomorrow! We will see you at Mountain Top at 7:30 AM. Look for the trailer!!!
Be EARLY. We will gather by the trailer before being allowed into the school.
Please check your email today, tonight, and if possible tomorrow morning in case of updates! Thank you!

Make Up Tips etc.
Here are some make up tips! Please read!
Applying stage make up is important for the following reasons:
Foundation:
-to reduce shine
-to even out your skin tone
Eye Make Up
-to define your eyes a bit but not draw extra attention to them
Chapstick
-so your lips aren't dry/dry looking
(no one should be wearing anything colored on their lips unless I tell you otherwise)
Overall to do the above but to give a natural look.
In Between the Poles I am not looking for any characters to be over the top in make up. When you apply your make up - go for a natural look. By natural I mean, well blended, not bold eyeliner, or loud blush.
This will allow our many characters to go between biblical/WW2, between sick/healthy, and between classes of people on either side.
Be sure to blend your foundation well at your jawline.
Do not rub it down your neck - this will ruin your costume!
Remember eyeliner is only on the top lid!
Your make up needs to be in a Ziploc bag in your backpack with your street clothes during dress rehearsals and performances.
ETC.
No one will be wearing nail polish! Fingernails or Toenails! (some of you are wearing sandals)
You cannot wear any personal jewelry.
