Notes for Sun Feb 8

Hi everyone!

Thanks for the great rehearsal on Sunday - it's very exciting that we have some choreography already started for Fatty Legs and are starting to hear the text come alive with Lisa!

Christina is unable to be with us this weekend, so get ready for a big choreo rehearsal on Sunday :) :) :) Please wear comfortable, moveable clothing (no jeans, tight skirts or anything restrictive - in general this should be the rule for every week of this show prep)

Here's the plan:

1:15-4:30  Fatty Legs Rehearsal
4:30-5:30  Countdown Rehearsal

We'll be tackling choreo for My Name is Olemaun Pokiak, Snowforms, and Countdown. Leah will guide us through a bit more music work on Countdown before we start putting in movement. Reminder to check in with the memorization schedule for Fatty Legs - the first two pieces need to be memorized (music-only) by Feb 22.

A Note about St. Matt's 
With the cold weather, we've had a few folks coming to the door to ask about the shelter that is offered at the church. It's important for me to stress that we cannot let anyone into the building who is not part of Xara - once we let them in, we become responsible for their actions. Not that we think that anyone who uses the shelter has untoward ideas, but we have to protect our organization and the rules that we agreed to when we rented the space. If someone comes to the doors while you are there, please advise them that the door to the shelter is on the OPPOSITE side of the church (between St. Matt's and the Maritime Centre) and that there usually is someone working the shelter starting at 7pm. Please be particularly aware of this at the end of rehearsal when there are many people leaving the building all at once. Thanks so much!
