Performers Entrance
The entrance for May Show performers is through the backstage door of the Convention Center located on the north side of the building, closest to Pine Street. (You will see Mrs. Lanie’s yellow car parked in the driveway).
Purpose for Tech Rehearsal
Thursday’s Technical Rehearsal is set so that each musical theatre and dance class has time to rehearse their pieces in costume on stage while the crew sets sound and lighting for each piece.
Upon Arrival
Upon arrival as students enter the backstage area, they will see an information table where Mrs. Lanie will be to answer questions and give directions if needed. Students grades 3-12 and Adults find assigned dressing areas to change into and out of costumes following each piece they rehearse. Students may leave once all pieces they are performing in have rehearsed (according to the tech rehearsal schedule).
Dressing Areas
Each age group has their own assigned dressing area, this information is available at the information table in the backstage area. Do not leave costumes or dance shoes in the dressing areas or at the Convention Center overnight. Take everything home each time so that nothing is misplaced or lost. Be sure student’s name is written on EVERYTHING!
