Notes for Sunday June 5 Rehearsal + Annapolis Royal Performance!

Hi everyone!

We hope you have had a lovely couple of weeks and are excited for our final two weekends of the year together before our summer hiatus! Please read below for info on our June 5 rehearsal, show in Annapolis Royal including drives, Membership Survey update, and June 12 final gathering!

Sunday June 5 - St. Matthew's United Church, 1:15-5:30 pm

We are going to do our regular warmups, some choreography spot checks, and then a FULL RUN (no costumes/hair/makeup). In particular during the movement session we are going to work on the Miserere and the Kyrie to make sure they are really tight. Following the run we'll do some final tweaks to music and movement. We have the same personnel as the Chester performance + Grace (yay!) so we will need to do a bit of tweaking regarding the stools etc.

Saturday June 11 - Kings Theatre, 209 St George St., Annapolis Royal

2:45 pm Call for Singers
3:00 pm Rehearsal - full mark through
5:00 pm Dinner
6:30 pm Call
7:30 pm Show

To Bring:
  • music and script
  • costume (including footwear)
  • all hair/makeup items
  • any props you are responsible for (fans, picture, etc)
  • gas money for your driver
  • snacks for yourself
We will have 1.5 hours for dinner but it would be best to call ahead to a restaurant in the area to book, or bring your own dinner.

Please note that following this show, we will need you to turn in any costume pieces which do not belong to you and were given to you by Dan. We will have storage bins available for you to return the costumes in.

End of Year Gathering
As we mentioned on Facebook, we would like to hold an end of year gathering on Sunday June 12 at St. Matthew's during our usual rehearsal time (starting at 1:15). We'd like to invite everyone to bring a snack to share, and it will be a time for reflection on the year past, as well as brainstorming for the future! Plus just fun XaraLove time! :)
