More Musical Revue Volunteers Needed Before We Can Commit to Putting on a Show

Posted Saturday, December 5, 2009 by PTA.

You may have noticed that you didn’t receive registration forms for the school play this week. This week was when we wanted to get them out to everyone. And it wasn’t because we didn’t have time to do it. Here’s the deal: we have only 9 numbers for the show, which is not enough to accommodate all of the kids who want to do it.

Here is what we could use: Beach boys, Monkeys, comedy, frankly anything. If you have an idea, go for it, if you don’t let’s talk, just plug yourself in to the system and let’s find a way to make it happen. We had 14 numbers last year, and that is really the minimum that we can work with. (Ideally we would have 15-17 numbers.)

If anyone out there thinks that the people who have come forward so far have some extra time on their hands, you’re wrong. Most of our directors work outside of the home. I myself am back in school, full time, 6 days a week. Everyone involved is going that extra mile. And what is the extra mile? It is adding, for 8 weeks, 1hour and 15 minutes to your “to do list”. Is everyone busy? sure! Are times hard? Sure! Is it exhausting in the end? Heck yes! But is it rewarding? Worthwhile? A blast? YES! YES! YES!

The show was an incredibly rewarding experience for Clinton students last year and we really want them to have it again. And remember, no directing or theatrical experience is necessary.

If you think you can help, please contact Suzanne. See the show page for more information.
