Hello everyone out there in Manilowland. Just to let you know that with a
reasonable number of you contacting me so far we are now at 50% in our
sales - a record for this stage of rehearsals! No laurels should be rested
upon however! This means that we still have to sell in excess of 1000
tickets. Remember that the longer you dally with your orders the less
'pleasing' will be the seating positions!!! Contact me any time. Please
also note that ordered tickets are non-returnable. This is still a
professional theatre situation and if any of your 'pals' renage then YOU
are responsible for settling your FULL account. You have been warned!!!

I'm happy to pass on the following rehearsal announcements from Ian Purves:

REHEARSALS WEEK COMMENCING 4 AUG

Tuesday 5 August 7.30pm Full Company Rehearsal (Music, Chorus Work &
Choroegraphy)

Thursday 7 August 7.30pm Everyone with Act 1 dialogue required

Sunday 10 August 2pm Choreography rehearsal. Full Company be
prepared to attend as required.

A new rehearsal schedule listing all dates from now until production week
has been prepared and will be issued at rehearsals.

It is extremely important that everyone attends all
rehearsals when required from now on.

Confirmation that on Sunday 10 August the full chorus are called for a
rehearsal of "Night on the Town". Please be at Croftfoot and ready to
start by 2pm.

As Ian stated at rehearsal we should keep all Tuesdays, Thursdays and
Sundays free for rehearsal. We need 100% attendance as there is a lot of
work to be done.

Unfortunately, not attending a rehearsal may result in members missing out
on placement in new numbers. You have been warned!!
