Tailgating!

Well... we went out and performed for the first time in public and I have to admit I thought it was a great success! We got a majority of the cast to go to the Tailgate series sponsored by the Flickinger Center and we sang during intermission. Most of the cast cast went around and pressed the flesh with the tailgaters to let them know about the show. It was a blast! The camera got passed around a bunch, so lots of great candids... check em out!

Burning all the oil!

Well we have been working off our behinds! Set building for the show has almost turned into a full time job... we have been building, painting and sweating and sometimes not in that order. Most of what you see down at the bottom are the lockers for the show... we are trying to be creative by inserting the wildcat logo and paws. I think its shaping up. In addition, there are classrooms to be decorated and mini platforms to be built. Wish us luck... only two weeks to go!

We are hitting the boards with more than just our feet! Now we have basketballs! Cami started "Getcha Head in the Game" and everyone is getting pumped! Full of energy, the number is sure not to miss with all the dedication the cast puts into it. In addition to dance we also began a run thru of Act II . We got the majority done, but.. we need to work a few areas. A casts job is never done. GO WILDCATS!

Late Night Set Building!

Hey there! Well we have had a busy couple of days here... rehearsal as usual, extra rehearsals and set building during the day and night... and of course late night set building. Its just not a show without it. Paul showed up to finish some grid work for painting and Erin and Justyn wound up helping him out. In addition, Randall and I finished building the science lab table and started on the mens locker room. Three weeks to go and its all go from here... stay tuned!

Dance in the Pants!

Practicing AGAIN!!! Today was another visit to the mall (we had a few spectators!) and we cleaned up some of the songs. On todays docket... Status Quo and Breaking Free. When things got a little cramped, the kids moved into the "hallway" (The mall, for those who have never seen the miniscule size of it). Patrons stopped and stared and took it all in! It was fun. We're getting closer and closer and everyone is starting to buzz a bit. Keep checking in... there will be more and more to see!

Billboards!

Howdy all! We had a busy morning today... we put up the billboards for the show! After a couple of false starts, we were able to hang them up all over town. (if your curious,,, Hwy 70, Indian Wells and First Street.) It was a group effort, Mike, Theresa, Robbie, Gracie and Corey helped and the many hands helped immensely!

SHOWING OUR COLORS!

Its the Fourth of July! WOOHOO! We we broke out the signs that the sign crew worked on so diligently and attached them to a flatbed and entered the Parade. We had a great time. We got there a little early to decorate (its been raining like crazy, so we didn't want to do it the night before) and covered the float with crepe paper and all sorts of patriotic stuff. When everything started we got to walk down tenth street and danced our feet off! The best part was dancing for the judges they really seemed to enjoy the show. GO TEAM WILDCATS!
