Mamma Mia Cast,

We will be holding choreography rehearsals next week on the following dates and times. Kim needs to know who she can work with next week for planning, so if you will not be available on these dates and times, contact her as soon as possible so she will know who she is working with.

Kim Mozur – Choreographer – kimberliemozur

Monday, August 6 – 10:00am – 12:00pm – Meet in the choir room

Tuesday, August 7 – 12:00pm – 2:00pm – Meet in the choir room

Wednesday, August 8 – 10:00am – 12:00pm – Meet in the choir room

Hopefully the Bishop Center will be available at some of these times, but we don’t know for sure at this point so we will meet in the choir room for instruction.

Thank you!

We are working with a software package called Stage Pro for MAMMA MIA.  It will allow us to input information in a central location during rehearsals such as contact lists, sign in, props, notes, blocking, etc.  This is mainly for use by the director, stage manager, and staff to access information from one platform versus email.

One of the services that is available to you through Stage Pro is the MyLines app.  The information is below.  If you are interested, they are loading the MAMMA MIA script now, which will take a couple of weeks because the rights to the show were just released, and they do not have it preloaded.  The app is $9, and it was suggested that if you have only two or three lines, you do not need the app.  It is mainly for leads and supporting roles.  There is absolutely no obligation to purchase this app.  Just wanted you to know that it is available as an option for you.

There will be tech support for all of this through Randy Threewits, the software developer.

Today, we will be deconstructing and repurposing some of the mobile units that we have on stage.  Again, please wear appropriate clothing for moving heavy pieces of scenery and getting dirty.

Just to give you an update on progress so far.

Since there is no camp the week of July 4, I rented a scissor lift, and Adam Baranowski worked on readjusting lights and replacing burned out bulbs, while I worked on clearing the backstage of lumber that we no longer need. I have gifted a cyclorama (a very large white drape that hangs near the back wall to using as lighting for skies, evenings, etc)  to Webb, and we were hoping to have maintenance hang the pipe from the ceiling that it will go on while we had the scissor lift.  Maintenance was too slammed with cleaning carpets in offices while the campus was free from campers to get that done.  We have rescheduled that for Wednesday, August 1.

Last week, I also broke down the two large towers to get them ready for the MAMMA MIA balconies.  What I would like to accomplish this week are building the bed unit, reconfiguring the stair unit from LEGALLY BLONDE for the bar, striking the 10-foot stair platform from CHICAGO, and cutting the large door unit by the overhead door in half to make smaller door units.  This will be a pretty big operation, generating a lot of sawdust, so it will be done outside.

Large groups of people are not necessary, but 4-5 would be great!  Thank you for all your help getting your scenery ready for rehearsals!
