Show Pictures!

Hello Cast and Crew, First of all I want to congratulate you all on your super hard work on this show and I am proud of every single one of you for how you have grown throughout this process. That being said below is the much anticipated link to the show photos I took on Saturday as well as some I have taken throughout to process to document the amazing growth in this company. This was not an easy process but we did an amazing job with it. Please add photo credits (To Helena) if you choose to share these photos. Much Ado Photos I will miss being your SM and I hope you all have an amazing journey ahead of you! Helena Stedman

NOTES: Much Ado 2/20 run

  Much Ado notes for 2/20 run Messenger - VOLUME Bea - Good ‘pop’ of the book Messenger - more good natured, playful (when Bea steals your cap) Don’t put the hat back on before announcing the soldiers are approaching Conrad - trim the beard Antonio - Slow down, VOLUME Marg/Urs - good looking confused when Leo starts talking about what to do Bora - more of a stereotypical ‘stoner’ laugh (I am certain youtube has options) Bora/Sunny/Conrad - have to hit the Charlie’s Angels pose Bea - slow down in the scene right before the masquerade ball Hit all three (woo/wed/repent)  CAST - Nice on the dance - Nailed the ‘Travolta’ Balthazar - Can you get your first line to Margret out in one go? Too disjointed and breaks up the flow. Bora/Conrad/Sunny - Dance costumes (REMINDER) Bora - stress ‘MARRY’ in ‘…MARRY her tonight’ Ben - entered too early during Claudio’s monologue Ben - watch diction during the all the jobs you ask DP to send you on (everything leading up to HARPY) Bea - Consider Don
  Much Ado notes from 2/19 run ***This does not include any notes given last night*** Hero /Bea - Take places in before lights up Shalom - Can the earmuffs be up on your hat? Bea - Pay more attention to the Leo/Messenger conversation Decide to stir the pot a little about Benedick Firmly close your book (make it pop?)  Leo - VOLUME Bea - Find a place to wear the messenger’s cap (or try to) SOLDIERS - Marching on entry works Ben & Bea - fight was low energy / going through the motions. CROWD - Good reactions to the B&B fight Ben - in sickness, anger…NEVER with love Ben/Claud/DP - see me about the horse for hire line DP - watch diction on bridge/flood line Leo / Antonio - VOLUME Antonio- be excited about the news you are sharing Leo - diction Bora - maybe no hand to cover mouth on ‘smoking’ Bora/Conrad - Great job directing traffic for D.Gianna Bea - good ‘get you to heaven’ voice Bea - wooing..repenting (with Hero down stage center) look up to heaven on ‘repenting’ Bora - hol

Cast Party Google Form

 Cast/Crew, It is tradition that after our opening show we go to Shari's (a diner restaurant) together as a group as our form of a cast party. It is not mandatory but it is a lot of fun. Anyone on cast or crew is welcome to join. This show, because opening is on a Thursday we have decided that a better date to do our party is on Friday night 2/23 after our show. We will be going to the Shari's at  6035 SW Murray Blvd, Beaverton, OR 97008 which is not the closest Shari's but is open the longest. We want to be curtious and call ahead before we arrive so it would be amazing if anyone interested in going would fill out the form linked below. The form will also be used to organize rides there. This is not a school sponsored event and there will be no adult chaperones present (besides seniors above the age of 18). That being said, the expectation is that we are respectful and pleasant to the other patrons of the restaurant and our servers. For any farther inquires talk to Eloise
