Because TMH cancelled our December 12 rehearsal, we have only 2 rehearsals remaining for the 2011 calendar year. Please check the Rehearsal this Week page for the plan for both rehearsals.
Both weeks, we rehearse at our regular time, 7:30-9:45 pm.
Let’s make these two rehearsals count! See you tomorrow.
Mallory Thompson and the Northshore Concert Band are registered in a race sponsored by Chase Bank to win $25,000.00. They need to be in the top 100 Facebook users who “like” them in this Chase promotion. Currently, they are in 81st place!
To help them, please click here, and “like” them. The contest ends on tomorrow, Tuesday at 11:00 am, so hurry!
And yes, we do need to investigate this for us next time around!
Please read and pass on to family/friends who may be interested!
For the first time ever, we are recruiting adults for the cast of our 2012 All-School Musical production. This year’s show, The Wedding Singer, requires a grandmother and a grandfather, and we have decided to cast “real” grandparents, instead of students! So if you or someone you know have ever had the acting bug, or have attended our shows and thought “I could do that!” — well, here is your chance!
Read on for our press release for complete information. If you want to schedule an audition, contact me, or John Housley, director, at housley@nvnet.org. Auditions are Tuesday, December 6, at NVOT.
Also, keep a lookout for the announcement of my new personal website launch — coming soon!
You are cordially invited to be a part of NVOT’s award-winning, sold-out musical tradition. This march, NVOT proudly presents it’s 49th All-School Musical Production, The Wedding Singer. The joyous, Tony-nominated musical is based on the hit Adam Sandler/Drew Barrymore movie about a wedding singer who falls for an engaged waitress in 1985 New Jersey!
NVOT will be holding auditions for two senior citizens to play the roles of The Wedding Singer’s Grandparents. Both of these supporting roles will highlight the performer’s singing, dancing and comedic talents. Candidates interested in auditioning for ROSIE, the wedding singer’s grandmother, should prepare 32 measures of any song and will be asked to perform a scene from the show. Candidates for ARNOLD, Rosie’s husband of 50 years, should prepare 32 measures of any song and will be asked to perform a scene as Ronald Reagan.
AUDITIONS will be held on TUESDAY, DECEMBER 6, 2011. Performances will be held on March 4, 5, 6, 2012.
For more information and to reserve an audition time, visit http://www.nvotmusical.org/or email the show’s director, John Housley at Housley@nvnet.org.
I’ve posted the new rehearsal plan for November 21. Please check the rehearsal order so you can be prepared for a great rehearsal!
We will be sure to play through all of the Grainger Children’s March this week, and also the Copland Lincoln Portrait, which we simply did not have time for last week.
The Copland is a big piece, well-known, and iconic. All those create a special challenge, as you already know. I’m especially excited about having Robert Sherman join us as narrator. He was very impressed with your performance at the March concert for Yonkers Public Schools at Sarah Lawrence last year. I know he is very excited about this opportunity.
Lastly, thank you for all the good wishes during my recuperation. I think I am finally feeling like myself again, and am eager to see you on Monday!
