At every audition, my belief in the tremendous talent in the students of Bexley City Schools is reaffirmed, and the auditions for this musical was no exception. Absolutely no one did poorly. The acting, singing, and dancing was simply FABULOUS! All students who auditioned should be commended for having the guts to give their all in front of so many people and do such a great job. Casting this musical was extremely difficult, and we thought long and hard about every role.
We are working on the rehearsal calendar and hope to have it emailed to all cast members soon. Rehearsals will not begin until after winter break.
Cast members should go to the Dargusch after school on Tuesday, December 17 to pick up their scripts and vocal books. All cast members will need a sturdy binder for their script, a highlighter, and a pencil to bring to every rehearsal.
Thank you again to everyone who auditioned. Bexley is truly a talented place!
