5:30 Call (We are allowed to enter at 5:00. If you are a principal dancer, and you felt rushed on Thursday, you may want to come a little early) Everyone please come in and get dressed, makeup on, and get your microphone on. You might be able to proceed directly to mic testing.
6:00 SHARP - All principal dancers on stage, along with any other young adults strong enough to move set pieces(Tjade, Caroline, David B). We will move from the end of each Oompa Loompa dance/song, to actually physically moving the set pieces to their places in the next scene. (see scene changes at the bottom of this email)
Also at 6:00 in front of closed grand: mic testing begins.
6:45 SHARP - All squirrels and oompa loompa squirrel guards on stage. We need to practice putting buckets of nuts into the chute and pressing "good nut" and "bad nut" buttons, and having someone (Peter?) taking buckets of nuts off and returning empty buckets. At the end of the scene, squirrels run off to stage right to sing Oompa Loompa song. THEN go back and grab your buckets and exit.
7:00 Set stage for Act I. - help is welcome.
7:30 House Opens - Those wearing mics report to Wyatt to POWERLOCK ALL MICS ON - Please be quiet on stage from this time on - NO TALKING - and if someone tries to remind you that you're making too much noise, please respectfully stop talking.
7:40 - OPENING NIGHT CIRCLE. This is a time of encouragement. Please be thinking of someone you'd like to recognize for being an encouragement to you and for making the show fun for you. Circle is for everyone - we're all part of a great big team with one united goal: to put on a fabulous show that rocks their socks off! (please remember if someone causes you stress that it's not purposeful, and we're all on the same team)
8:00 Overture begins.
Act II Scene Changes:
Act II begins with the chocolate room preset, with 12' door and 8' door on SR, 12' white wall UL, and 8 foot door SL.
After Oompa Loompa I, move off the "candy hills" and then go to triangle units to get ready to turn.
Drop will rise just as someone in the boat says "Where are you taking us?", lights black out and projection and music begin. Those not dancing or involved in boat begin to turn triangle units to 12' white and 8' inventing room on SL and SR. (or if you have a break in the dancing, turn your set piece) Jacobs twins can turn set pieces when song starts and then get blueberry ready.
After Oomopa Loompa II, move and turn triangle units to 8' white and 12' bubbles on SR and SL
After Burping Song, move and turn triangle units to squirrel formation and bring in the chute.
After Oompa Loompa III, remove chute, move units to 8' whites on SR, with TV between them, and 12' whites on SL with only 2 feet between them, and folded black curtain on floor. Mid closed. During scene, curtain comes up, lights strobe, Mike Teavee EXITS, and then curtain drops.
After Oompa Loompa IV, push units together and get ready to bring on Wonka Elevator
