2-19-16 Aladdin Update for all!

Post date: Feb 20, 2016 1:29:35 AM

Good afternoon 5/6/7/8 Aladdin parents!

Two important items on the agenda:

1. After School Rehearsal is next Tuesday, Feb. 23rd! (5/6 Mandatory; 7/8 Invite only)

2. Parent/Student encouragement appreciated

Rehearsals are rolling along, step by step. Although we are right on schedule, there is still much to rehearse. I would really appreciate a full house of 5th & 6th graders next Tuesday afternoon. (7th & 8th graders are not required to be here, but oh so welcome to join us!) Having more than our rushed 15 minutes at the 5/6 lunch is so beneficial. Thanks so much for making this once a month commitment a priority.

Things are about to get real interesting as we move into the more visual parts of our performance. I’d appreciate your prayers specifically as we begin to make decisions configuring the production with so many students, building out the stage, sorting out blocking, choreography, costuming and props. May God be glorified not only in the final product, but in the whole process as well!

Lastly, please encourage your son or daughter to “do the work” (practicing lyrics & dances at home) as unto the Lord. Lyric sheets have been given out to all 5/6/7/8 graders. As a group, we are at that scary point of knowing songs “well enough” to muddle through, but not near our performance standards. God is worthy of our very best efforts! Parents, your input into this process is vital. I appreciate your efforts in helping me communicate this to our budding stars. We are at the point when we need to make the choice to be excellent. Our goal is to be our best for Him.

Thank you for allowing me to partner with you in the musical endeavors of your precious kids. They are all fun & fabulous! I must say, every rehearsal I feel refreshed, encouraged and even more excited for the weeks to come.

Have an awesome weekend!

Sincerely,

Robin Brumley
