Dear
Show Choir Parent,
April and May are very busy months! Because of all the things happening
in our school schedule it is important that I go over all show choir upcoming
rehearsal and performance dates.
Wednesday, May 1st 7:40-8:30 will be Honors Choir Students ONLY.
This is to get a full rehearsal with them as needed before our performance. If
your child is not in Honors Choir this year, they are excused from this show
choir practice. $3.00 Honors Choir Dues for lunch are due this
day.
Wednesday, May 8th 7:40-8:30 will be dress rehearsal
for “Lights, Camera, Action”. Students may bring their costumes instead of
wearing them. This will also be the last Show Choir practice (except
for Honors Choir Students).
Monday, May 13th 6:00-6:30pm will be the performance
for “Lights, Camera, Action!” Show Choir needs to arrive in costume at 5:30pm.
Tuesday, May 14th 7:40-8:30 will be one last Honors
Choir Rehearsal. Due to the 5th grade Dollywood field trip on
Wednesday, May 15th, we will need to schedule in a rehearsal for
Honors Choir. I was thinking Tuesday morning, May 14th, at regular
show choir time would work best. If this poses a problem to your schedule,
please let me know. Email [email protected] Or Call
423.479.7274. Or Text 304.807.5944
Thursday,
May 16th is Honors Choir Day! Students will eat pizza with me in the
classroom. We will depart from Ross at 12:00 noon. We will rehearse at Arnold
from 12:30-5:00 with all elementary schools. The Honors Choir Performance will
be that night at 5:30pm at Arnold.
Let’s get through the rest of this year with great success!!

We are gearing up for our spring concert performance of "Lights, Camera, Action!" Please start thinking about your costumes before it's too late. Be simple. The more simple the better. Watch movies of your character. Watch them on television. Look them up on the internet. Whatever they are wearing, you can wear something close to that.
PLEASE contact me if you have any questions.
The performance date for "Lights, Camera, Action" is May 13th at 6:00 in the E.L. Ross Gym
Parents, make sure your kids are practicing their Honors Choir music at home with their CD and packets. The Honors Choir date is May 16th from 12:15-4:30. The performance is at Arnold at 5:30. Dues are $3.00 to go towards your child's dinner.

Lights! Camera! Action
We are gearing up for a Spring Concert of "Lights! Camera! Action." It features different songs from the movies. Our kids are dressing up like characters, actors, actresses, and stage/camera crew. The kids are really learning a lot about what it takes to make a movie. We started choreography in rehearsal today. What a blast!
The kids are starting to tell me some of their costume ideas. I find the more they come up with on their own, the more creative and exciting the outcome will be. Here's what I've heard of so far!
1. Scarlett O'Hara in her green "curtain dress".
2. Lucille Ball in a poodle skirt with her hair pulled back in a curly bun.
3. Actresses like Amy Adams, Julia Roberts, and Jessica Alba in gowns they wear for red carpet events.
4. John Travolta in a white, large collard shirt, with jacket and bell bottom jeans. Maybe a long necklace to go with it.
5. Indiana Jones with his whip!
6. Jackie Chan in karate uniform.
7. Mae West in a blonde wig with all her diamonds.
8. Camera crew in all black with some headphones and hats.
9. The director in his usual "Director" printed shirt.
10. Katharine Hepburn with calla lillies.
11. Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter!!!
12. Laura Ingles Wilder in a prairie dress with braided pig tails.
13. Doris Day in an awesome "50's style" polka dotted dress!
And I've heard much more than these. I LOVE your ideas!! =)
The performance for "Lights! Camera! Action!" is on May 13 at 6:00pm in E.L. Ross Gymnasium.
