Dream Weaver
Performance Fees, Voluntary Donations & Rehearsal Schedule
Barnwell is excited to be able to offer its students the opportunity to participate in the school musical again this year! Your child will learn the ins and outs of creating a musical from start to finish and will receive voice, dance and performance instruction from our very talented team of professionals. They will work hard, have fun and make new friendships along the way!
Performance Fee: A significant amount of our production will be funded by PTO support, voluntary donations and ticket sales, but that won’t cover all of our expenses. To put on a successful play, we need funds for the creative team, sets, props and some of the costumes, the cast dinner party and gifts, the photographer, videographer, sound system and much more. As such, a $75 performance fee is requested for all students participating in the school play and we will ask for donations, as needed, for things like food for the concession stand, props and costumes.
Rehearsals:
Rehearsals are typically Tuesday, Thursday and some Fridays. A more specific rehearsal schedule can be found on the calendar pages.
Mandatory Rehearsals:
Doing the play at Barnwell is like any other extracurricular (soccer, karate, piano, etc). You are expected to be at all of the practices and to be prepared (always have your play book and a pencil with you). All kids are expected to attend all practices unless otherwise notified. Of course, things like illness etc come up but please consider your family’s ability to remain committed to the rehearsal schedule before committing to be in the play. The last week of rehearsals are absolutely crucial for all attendance, no exceptions aside from acute illness.
Performances:
Performances will be held on Friday, February 9th at 7:00 PM and Saturday, February 10th at 6:00 PM. Please note that the cast must report immediately after school on Friday and 4:00 PM for the Saturday performance. Dinner will be provided on Friday; please feed your actor/actress on Saturday before their call time.
