Show Week continues

Show Choir SHOW WEEK continues.  Tomorrow is all about music (dynamics, ballad, diction & coordination with the band). Friday we will stop to fix formations as we run the show (no costumes).  Then Saturday morning at {ATTENTION THIS IS A CHANGE} 7:00am we will run the show with the band/set (working choreography, costume changes & consonants) before we pack the wardrobes and take off for Beavercreek.

Tuesday 1/13/15

Good job this morning with the costume change Show Choir- I thought it went very smoothly.  We need to continue to enhance our facial expressions and diction so that they carry to the back of the auditorium during the entire performance.  We must tighten the morning schedule in order to complete our goals before the bell rings.  A formation check is only possible with full attendance.
Here is Tomorrow's schedule:
6:45 setup wardrobes and 1st costume
6:50 warmup
6:55 ballad & dynamics (+diction review)
7:05 full show with choreo, vocals, costume changes, combo & set
7:22 to street clothes
7:30 notes/dismiss at bell
There is also a voluntary choreography review tomorrow after school.  This may be the last time you have the dance captains to yourselves to ask questions, run tough sections and fix problem areas before we perform at Beavercreek this Saturday.

Beavercreek prep week

Show Choir: great preview show last night in Edgewood! This season is off to a wonderful start. Monday please bring all of you costume(s) and music. We will be attacking several of the judge's musical suggestions and cleaning formation & spacing issues first. Tuesday- Friday we will add costume changes and the set as we continue to work with our combo, clean choreography, add additional dynamic interest as well as train ourselves to deal with the timing rules of competition. It will be a big week as we prep for Beavercreek on Saturday. Punctuality, preparedness and patience are all essential elements as we work toward our common goal of a spectacular season together!

Show Choir Snow Contingency Plan

Show Choir Snow Contingency Plan:  If we have a 2 hour delay- class is at 8:45am, If we have a school cancellation then we will meet on stage from Noon until 4:30pm to learn the rest of the show (12-1 music, 1-4 new choreo with Andrea, 4-4:30 put it all together).

Ladies- we still have four women who need to buy jazz shoes.  I will call Mama Mel tonight and see what our options are.  See you tomorrow!  

Lock-in time adjustment

Attention Show Choir: I have to adjust the times for the singer/dancer/combo members during the lock-in because Andrea has been called in during the afternoon by the Army.  We will do Saturday noon-3:30 (choreo review, vocal rehearsal, band with vocals), then you will be dismissed to get what you need for the potluck & lock-in from 3:30- 5pm.  We will have our potluck at 5pm (instead of 7pm as originally planned).  Andrea will have a long choreo session to start the lock-in from 6-midnight.  The rest of our schedule from midnight until Sunday morning at dismissal will stay the same.

Don't forget your pictures tomorrow Show Choir.

Tree Lighting

Great job tonight at the Tree Lighting everyone!  Watching the Harrison High School Bands  in the parade, singing a few preview songs from our JS & HS choir concerts next week, visiting a few downtown shops and then grabbing a late coffee at The Coffee Peddlar was perfect.  Thanks City of Harrison!

Tree Lighting and Show Choir rehearsal

Reminder for Show Choir: we have rehearsal tomorrow morning at 9am in the commons (until noon).

Reminder for HS Concert Choir, Treble Cats, Junior School Choir, Show Choir and the 6th graders who volunteered to attend: we are singing at the Harrison Tree Lighting after the Christmas parade in downtown Harrison tomorrow night.  See everyone there.
