Who’s going where?

The tentative roster can be seen here. Please let me know if there are any problems!

When will it end?

Wheaton Warrenville South: We should be home around 6:30p.

Waubonsie Valley: We should be home around 5:00p.

Extemp and Radio?

Wheaton Warrenville South: ES and Radio will both prep three times for prelims (and again for finals).

Waubonsie Valley: ES and Radio will both prep twice for prelims (and again for finals).

What time should you be at Neuqua?

Wheaton Warrenville South: Bus leaves at 6:30a. Be there early.

Waubonsie Valley: Bus leaves at 6:30a. Be there early.

If you’d like to be a part of the postseason and do Performance in the Round, please let Mehta know! (It’s a 15-minute play and you don’t need to be in an acting event!)

Who I need to see this week is listed below — I haven’t seen some of you ever, so please bring a script and please be memorized. We can’t make meaningful changes until you KNOW your piece. Our focus word this week is: consistency. We’ll be working to make your piece polished and precise so it is consistent.

The NV teachers have a staff meeting until 3:30 on Monday, but Mehta does not have to worry about that meeting (lucky man), so you all will still have a team meeting, but that’s why there is a delay with my Monday rehearsal times.
