FAME THE MUSICAL--The Team



FAME
NOTE FROM THE DIRECTORS
Please read for valuable information.

APPLICATIONS FOR PRODUCTION TEAM & DIRECTING TEAM ARE STILL OPEN UNTIL THURSDAY 3/4/2010 AT NOON.

Thanks to each of the 97 students who completed the general meeting, audition and application process. We are very excited about the cast for this year's musical. Please understand that all casting is contingent upon eligibility. There are several students who need to improve their term II grades prior to being cast.
Schedule this Week
There will be no meeting on Tuesday, March 2. Consider supporting the Drama II students and their performance of GREATER TUNA. We will have our first "Production Day" meeting on Wednesday, March 3, 2010 at 3:00 in the Drama Room.

There will be a meeting of Principal Players (FAME Teachers & FAME Students) on Thursday, March 4, 2010. Members of the KIDS FROM FAME PA are welcome to but not required to attend this meeting as they may be needed to assist with the LC Clash of the Titans Show Choir Invitational.

Mr. McLaughlin will be meeting with a few select members of the Directing Team on Friday. These students will be contacted by Mr. McLaughlin. All FAME THE MUSICAL students should be preparing for finals or working on the Show Choir Invitational.

Thanks and congratulations to one and all. Please bring a pencil and a binder with you to all rehearsals. As always, thank you to all who auditioned. We look forward to celebrating all of the great talent at LC in this show.

Mr. McLaughlin
Mr. Johnson
Ms. Wragge
