ANNOUNCEMENTS
Please remember to bring all self-provided costume pieces with you on Wednesday so they are ready for the dress rehearsal on Thursday. Everyone is responsible for their own shoes and black, gray, or beige socks; nude tights are an optional alternative.
No food or drink on stage or while in costume. Please have beverages covered in the theatre. Plan to eat in the lobby or outside during breaks.
For theatre makeup, we are looking for eyeliner, mascara, blush, and natural lips and lids for everyone. Foundation is optional. Nothing sparkly. Hair for women should be in low ponytail or bun, young girls may have half ponytails or low pigtails. Please use neutral-colored hair ties.

CALL FOR SATURDAY July 1 and SUNDAY July 2. I anticipate needing the following actors: Thomas, Shannon, Shriya, Shruti, Austen, and Mandy. Aviya and Averit are welcome and might be able to fill in for some extra bodies & voices. We'll be working the basics of Act One, scenes 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and 9, as much as we can without some key players. Notes will be taken for people who are in the scenes but not called for rehearsal. I look forward to sharing that blocking when we're all together again on Thursday. So, unless already noted, please do plan to be at KAMP on July 6, Thurs evening, for a sing-through of the music from Act 1 and notes about blocking.
Please remember that the Google Production Site (linked in Kristen's note below) the Cast List/Contact Sheet has a vacation calendar connection. Do take a moment to review that spreadsheet to add any updated (or missed) anticipated absences. Thank you very much.
Everyone--have a great weekend. It's going to be a beautiful one to celebrate our amazing country and the fabulous people in it. (insert firework excitement here)
Let me know if you have questions.
Kim*
Hi all, everyone is called to tomorrow's rehearsal. Kim and Lambros will be leading as Jim, and I are both out through 7/9. Kim will call folks as needed on Saturday, stay tuned for a follow-up email from her. While I am out, please text Kim, at 425-518-3180, if you are running late or will miss a rehearsal. Sunday everyone is called, be sure to bring your script and take your own blocking notes. We plan to start off-book rehearsals by July 15th, so be sure to be memorizing those lines and music.

Looking forward to seeing you all at rehearsal tonight! Jim will be out of town for a couple of weeks so it's really important for us to have as many folks as possible tonight while he is here. He may ask soloists to stay a little long (9:30).
All cast are called this weekend for choreography and dance rehearsals. Wear something comfortable and bring water/ a snack. Please refer to the Rehearsal Calendar if you want to know which songs we are doing.
If you are scheduled to miss rehearsal please be sure to connect with scene partners to catch up on what you missed. Please text me if you are running late or will miss unexpectedly.
We are starting to pull costumes today so may be taking measurements or asking you to try things on at rehearsals.
If you are interested in helping to build a set piece, please let me know.
Have a wonderful week!
-Kristen
It was so fun working out the choreography for a few dance numbers today! Here is a link to the sheet music with choreography notes which I will post as we run them together. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1R51UVT_lOuvhqHI9ua34SsXPuXibbCZi?usp=sharing. I have also linked it on the production page. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the music rehearsal this Thursday! -Kristen

Hi Everyone,
Kim and Jim have canceled rehearsal for tomorrow 6/11.
Thank you for being available!
-Shannon
Hope everyone's week is off to a great start! I have created a vacation calendar, please fill in the dates which you will be unavailable for rehearsal by the end of the week so can send out a full production rehearsal calendar asap. This is the best way for me to keep track, I just have too many emails.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week! As so many folks are already occupied during the earlier read-through time, we are going to push it out a week to our normal 4:00-7:00 on 6/11. We will read and sing through the entire show together at this time. All other scheduled rehearsals are the same, just Sunday, 6/4, is canceled. I will have scripts and music at the children's rehearsal and will be at KAMP Monday evening, so anyone who doesn't have theirs yet is welcome to swing by if you would like it prior to the sing-through on Thursday. All music and script are also on the production Google site. We have made a couple of casting announcements on the cast list, more to come as we register the last few participants; thanks for all the great referrals! Last note, if you are waiting for an email reply from me, please email me again separately. My inbox is confused by the number of threads I have going off this email chain.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Please sign up to bring a dish or drinks to share!

Thank you all for participating in the audition process, we have such a talented group! If you have not done so already please fill out the Registration Form. A partial cast list has been posted here.
Please note, we do still need to cast a few characters. Those listed as soloist will likely have a lead or named role (or two) which will have lines in a scene or song.

Thank you for your patience as we finish working out the details.
Join us on Friday, May 12th at 6:30 at KAMP Music for Fiddler on the Roof Movie Night and Potluck. Bring a dish or drink to share and get to know your castmates and other KAMP Music community members. Signup Genius coming soon.
