| June 18, 2008 | | | Notes for the show & Evaluation Form
This is it. Can you believe it? It's show time!
The kids have worked hard to create a show that should amaze and astound you. This show is one you'll want to share with everyone so I hope your entire family, your friends and your child's friends will be in the audience.
On performance day, our expectations of you and your family are different than they have been so far. To help the day run smoothly, please be aware of each of the following:
I. BEFORE THE SHOW
Cast members should bring something to do during the shows on Thursday. You have to wait a long time back stage between cues.
II. APPEARANCE
A. Costume: CIRCUS OF THE KIDS provides the basic costume. You are only permitted to wear things you are assigned and you must wear all items assigned to you. Remember to leave all of your jewelry at home.
B. Hair: If it is long enough to be put up, put it up in a tight bun. Your hair should not dangle (i.e. pony tails are not acceptable).
D. Underwear: Wearing underwear under your circus costume is optional. If you choose to wear it, the best color to wear is skin toned. Some of our costumes are not completely opaque. Therefore, DO NOT wear something with bright designs (i.e. polka dots, stripes, etc.) And remember, NO BOXERS.
III. AT THE SHOW
A. Your "call" to get ready for each performance is 60 minutes before show time. Be on time.
B. ONLY cast members are allowed back stage. Sorry, friends and parents are not allowed in any of the back stage areas. Food is not permitted in back stage areas.
IV. WHEN IT'S ALL OVER
A. You are responsible for returning all of your costume pieces.
You will be billed for any pieces not returned.
B. Return your costume by placing it back in your costume bag and giving it to the person who is collecting costumes. Be sure they check your name off. Don't leave it or give it to someone else to return. Remember, YOU are responsible for it until we know it is returned.
C. We have an evaluation form for you to let us know how we did. Please download it from the link below and bring it to the show or send it to us.
Thank you for your involvement in CIRCUS OF THE KIDS. I hope it is an experience your whole family fondly remembers for a long time. Hope to see you next year!
