This week I want to see full categories; the novices will be competing at their first real meet, and that is a difficult and exciting time for them. With that said, I will need to see Radio, Info, and DEC with category leaders and novices. If the other varsity members within the category want to be there, please do join us. The more eyes on the novices to help them improve and feel confident, the better.

All varsity members need to be working on their final edits (tell me if you need significant help editing) and memorizing the parts that we have already finalized. Don’t forget we are getting close to your first meet of the 2016 season as well!

What excitement, what energy, what joy I feel as this schedule is constructed! The only thing that could possibly dampen this joy would be lack of memorization…

Working with an un-memorized piece is like watching a square roll down a hill. It goes slow, nothing really happens, and I get bored. Almost a month after auditions memorization is a must.

Please bring two fresh and updated copies of your script!

This grand week I would love to see:

Sign up for the first available slot, no breaks in the day!

Scripted pieces…let’s continue the editing and “fixing” process. Remember, we are going to memorize in chunks (once we have fixed and set a section, you are to leave it alone and memorize until after it’s been tried at a few meets. Then changes can be made.) Info and Dec members should have already shared their pieces with me.

Roshni—meet me during the week, 3rd period, any two days (except Tuesday).

I will need to see the following people this week (each slot is 30 minutes).

I will need to see the following people this week (each slot is 30 minutes).

My objective is to get a feeling of what your plan (script or original piece) is for this season with the piece you have selected. Info and Dec members should be sharing their pieces with me.

Roshni—I want to determine where the category of Radio is at right now. I will begin rehearsals with the rest of the varsity members next week.

For all members, I will need to know your option periods as well (that is always a good backup when needed to meet, if your off period is the same as mine).
