At every audition, my belief in the tremendous talent in the students of Bexley City Schools is reaffirmed, and the audition for this play was no exception. Many students auditioned, and the acting was simply FABULOUS! All students who auditioned should be commended for having the guts to audition on Zoom for the first time.
Because the students did so well, I decided to do TWO SHOWS INSTEAD OF ONE! Performance dates will be the same: we will perform the one act of The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon, have a 10 minute intermission, and then perform the one act The Internet is Distract...Oh Look a Kitten! This format gives more opportunities for students to shine. Please note, there is no "A" show and "B" show. Both scripts and casts are #1!
The first rehearsal for both shows will be on Tuesday, September 15 from 5:30-6:30PM on ZOOM. Scripts, Zoom codes, and rehearsal calendars will be emailed to both parent and student emails before Tuesday, September 15. Please let me know if a cast member cannot attend this first rehearsal.
Calendars will be available for download on this website on the Production Info Page. You can also get to the page by going to the Students or Parents tab, clicking on Production Info, and then clicking on Middle School Virtual Plays. This page will be updated and active soon. Cast members are not needed at every rehearsal, so please use the chart that will be provided with the production calendar to know who has to be at each rehearsal. All fees and forms are filled out online. Please read the entire info page for required fees, online tickets, and show merch. The deadlines are on the info page as well. The pay to play fee, program bio, program parent ads and merch are due on September 24.
Thank you again to everyone who auditioned. Bexley is truly a talented place!
