ABCT Parent Information and forms

Hi!

This is the parent/participant list for the ABCT 2023 show El Principe Oso or The Bear Prince. If you think you have received this email in error, reply to appleboxtheater@gmail.com and we'll take you off the list. 

We're so excited for the first rehearsal and casting of El Principe Oso!

We are nailing down casting, and I will email the final cast list on Friday. 

I've included the Parent Information sheet below, in case you couldn't make it to the parent meeting during auditions. Look there for pick-up and Drop-off info.

First Rehearsal
Please note the first rehearsal/read through is May 6, 9-11 am at ITC 211 at WOU. 
  1. Only actors with lines are required to come to read-through.
    1. everyone else is welcome to come listen
  2. Scripts will be distributed during the read-through, but they'll be passed out at later rehearsals, too.
  3. Name tags will be used to check in and check out actors.
  4. Parking Lot A behind ITC will be reserved for parents who wish to stay and listen. (see map below)
  5. Pick up and drop-off will be closer to Lot A this time only. We will be very obvious. :)

ABCT Weekly Update - 6/19 - 6/25

From ABCT, Happy Father's Day to all the fathers, and those who fill a fatherly role, in the group! It's been a fun week of full length rehearsals and the show is coming together, scene by scene.
