Congratulations to all parents, cast and crew on the accomplishment of completing Move In and the first Dress Rehearsal!
From sets and props to tech and costumes it is all coming together wonderfully. Thank you all so much for your hard work in preparing for today and for working together in a flexible way as we all tackled the Move In among the surprise of scaffolding and last minute needs and changes.  It was wonderful to watch the cast and crew observe and mimic the adult's ability to be gracious and flexible with each need.

Each and everyone of you are a blessing to this production.


Thank you.

A few reminders for cast and crew as you prepare to head to the theater tomorrow.

Please remember to bring the following items:
 Show Box
 Make Up kit, inside the Show Box

Water
Snack money

I will see the Crew at the Venetian Theatre at 10:00AM and the cast at 1:30PM.
We will Certainly have a great day of getting moved in and having the first dress rehearsal!
Parents, please review the 2nd Parent Meeting agenda for more detailed Move In Scheduling for Parent Committees.

 Thank you.

 

Show Buddies!

Here is the list of Show Buddies!
Please remember that your job as a buddy is to encourage your buddy through the run of the show.
Some great ways to encourage a buddy are a special verse or note, words of encouragement, a smile or song that encourages your buddy to enjoy the wonderful blessing of being a special part of our cast or crew. If you have a buddy who is in their first show this is a great time to help them to learn how things work at the theater. You are the expert!
If you  would like to bring a very small gift for your buddy you may but please understand that this is not a requirement. 
If you bring in candy please remember that it must be prepackaged and not chocolate. All candy must be taken home before opened as it is not allowed in the theater.
The following is the list of Show Buddies:
Joel Langstaff and Aaron Hathaway and Grant Vessely
Evan Hathaway and Daniel Eremeyeff
Brian McCaslin and Nathan Lamb
Jack Edwards and John Laurie
Jordan Eremeyeff and Joshua Barksdale
Sierra Kruse and Heather Kurle
Emma Lindley and Kassie Cordier
Payton Jones and Maddison Duncan
Natalie Pupkewitz and Hannah Pung
Kelsie Shirley and Ruth Barksdale and Mia Shinseki
Madison Fissel and Andrea Beauchamp
Mei Li Langstaff and Lily Cordier
Abby Edwards and Elle Kurle
Hannah Eremeyeff and Lily Frerichs
Maddie Pizzuti and Rachel Muwaw

Charlotte's Web Box Office News!

Hi Parents,

It's almost showtime! Will you have an hour with nothing to do after dropping off your cast or crew member for the shows? Why not help sell tickets!  It's fun and it makes the time fly by quickly until the curtain opens.  It's a great opportunity for those of you who have parent passes and were planning to stay for the show.  Don't worry, you won't miss anything... the job is over just before the show starts.  

The Box Office committee needs two additional helpers for each show to help sell tickets and to distribute Will-Call tickets.  Adult friends and family members including responsible older teens are welcome to help too.  

There will be a sign-up sheet at the parents meeting on Friday.  If you'd like to pick your show before Friday night, please feel free to give me a call (my number is on the cast/crew list) or send me an e-mail (mtmumaw@yahoo.com) and you'll get first choice!

Teri Mumaw
Box Office Committee

Charlotte's Web Publicity Posters

Dear Charlotte's Web Families,

The posters have all been distributed!  Thank you so much for your enthusiasm in getting this done.  If you still have posters that have not yet been put up and you don't think you will be able to by the end of the week, please bring them back so that we can pass them on to other families who have placement location ideas but no posters.  Remember to keep refilling the show card pockets as you see the need.  We have plenty of cards.
You can view the location of the posters by clicking on the Poster Placement Page on the Blog. If you have an additional location please email me so that I can get it up on the list.

Thanks again for all of your help!

Living Social Ticket Information

Dear CYT Patrons,

Starting today, CYT is joining with LivingSocial to promote tickets for our Spring shows.  If you subscribe to LivingSocial, we just want to make sure you know a couple of the "rules" for purchasing these tickets. 
1.  This deal is good only to new customers (people who have not purchased tickets to any CYT show before).  
2.  Tickets purchased through this deal do not count toward the Ticket Contest.

Also, in light of this promotion, we expect tickets for our Spring shows to start selling like crazy!  So, if you haven't purchased your tickets yet, you may want to do that right away.

Thanks so much for your ongoing support,
Bethany Larson
Marketing Director

Advertisement Sales

Charlotte's Web Parents,

Hi all, just checking in on ad sales.  As you know the posters arrived on Tuesday.  When you go into a business to place a poster this is outstanding opportunity to ask about an ad.  Obviously, you are not going to do this at every business, but you all know the places you frequent.  Why not ask them to place an ad?  It's simple.  Do your kids go to gymnastics?  Do you have a Dr appointment?  A visit to an insurance agent?  These is are all opportunities.  I sold an ad, just this week, where Kelsie takes gymnastics.  Please do not pass up the "low lying fruit".  In most cases an ad purchase is tax deductible too.

Please help me out here.  I appreciate your time.

Best,
Wayne Shirley

Posters Available for Pick Up!

Dear Charlotte's Web Families,

The posters and show cards are now available and ready to be hung all over town!  It is important that we place all posters as soon as possible.
Before class Tuesday, please take a moment to look over the paper in your parent information packet that gives a detailed list of poster placement locations. 
If you could come see me  (Sienna)  at the information desk before or after class and let me know what area(s) you would like to cover, I will give you posters to get started.  I will have the poster placement list available with the posters as well.
We have 350 posters but if we work together, we can get them up in no time!  If you live or are work in an area that is not on the list, please feel free to place posters there and just let me know where they were put up.
 
We will keep a list of poster placement on the Blog so that everyone can see where the posters have been placed.

Thank you for your help in getting the word out!

Sienna Langstaff
