SOCKS - CHANGE FOR TODAY 4/17
Friday, April 7, 2023
Monday, April 3, 2023
Production Calendar! Please Read...
Hey y'all - After a long time in coming, below is the link to our Production Calendar!
A couple of notes/caveats:
1) Take all of this with a grain of salt...things are likely to change by little bits here and there. By changes I mean little stuff like call times, not likely wholesale days and calls. Stay flexible, but plan on what's listed.
2) Check back regularly! I'll add specifics, design/tech due dates, more information etc. as that information comes available. I'll send info out on the Remind if anything changes, but take the initiative to check regularly.
3) On the subject of the Remind...get on it today! Text @sw2socks to 81010 for in the moment, direct reminders about stuff related to the show!
4) Ask questions! If you've a tech Lead role on a project, and you are unsure of, or need, anything...email me directly at mjamie@pps.net, or come find me at school.
5) Anything that happens on a non-school day, make sure you come to the Stage Door...it's the only one guaranteed to be open.
6) While much of this is targeted at technicians, the actors and musicians should avail themselves of this too...Actors already know much of this, but it's a good reminder
That's it for now. We are in the endgame now, so all hands on deck, get your rest, and let's get after this!!!
