Nice job everyone!! What a wonderful show! Seriously, I had a smile on face the whole time!
Since this was only the second time getting through the whole show in one shot, I’ve taken just a few notes to help clean things up. Don’t worry, I want take any more notes the rest of the run! J (unless someone dies or something) So just a few thing to make the show even better!
Actors

oALL: Talking backstage—I’ve heard some reports; remember it can ruin the show.
oALL: Words in act one finale!! Volume and enunciate
oALL: Bows, start moving a little earlier (while the person in front of you is still bowing)
oALL: Keep all costume pieces on (wigs, headpieces etc) when you go to meet kids.

I know some of you are supporting Seussical today by attending the 3pm show. Just a reminder that there are two lanes closed on I-205 North and it will take longer to get across the bridge- don't visit too long after the show! Call Time is 6:00pm.
We're excited for tonight's OPENING. Call time is 6pm. Please join us for the after party in Fort Vancouver's cafeteria after the show. Everyone is welcome- a $3 per family fee helps cover the cost of the building and staff. We'll have a DJ, so be ready to eat, drink, and DANCE!
