We are in the home stretch! Just one more rehearsal and then the show! I am so looking forward to seeing everyone on the stage for dress rehearsal this Saturday. They have all been working so hard and it shows. We’ve got a few more details to finish for costumes and props but its all coming together. What really stands out this week is how everyone is working together as a team. Each cast member is so supportive of their fellow performer. Its’ really remarkable. Brianna often cheers on the other performers in Mamma Mia and Shane is always so complimentary of the Grease cast and Molly and even me! What a guy! Ashley as well, she is our cheerleader, always ready to jump up and dance and sing. I don’t know if I have ever worked with such a fine group of actors. This week Tristin dawned his Teen-Angel costume and blew us all away with his “Beauty School Drop Out” performance. I hope you all get to see it! And Graham! Holy cow! I don’t want to give away. I’ll just say that his performance is so genuine and moving- really wonderful. Jillian and Patrick totally charmed us all with their duet in Oklahoma! Giovanna and Evan make the perfect comic duo and Ciaran really showed his stage presence in Mamma Mia! That guy’s got rhythm! So, keep practicing those lines and songs and we will see you at the theater on Saturday!

MFL Musical Theater Program Blog 11/10/2018 We had so much fun this Saturday. The shows are really taking shape. Almost everyone is able to run through the show without a script. So, keep practicing! There will be volunteers on stage who will assist if necessary, but let’s really try to memorize the lines. Mamma Mia! is looking sparkly in their Super Trouper bell bottoms and Grease is looking very pink in Frenchy’s new wig! We practiced working with the Greased Lightning set piece as well- Very exciting. Oklahoma is fine tuning the big chorus and dance numbers with Jacob leading the way! Next week will be first dress rehearsal in the studio!! So please come with or in costume. If you have any questions about this you can contact Jeffrey or me. Keep up the good work!

Hi Everyone! Another fantastic rehearsal this week. I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to our amazing volunteers; Sarah, Loni, Molly H, Rick and now Andre’s mom Beth. They are all helping out so much during rehearsals, singing, dancing, remembering what I am supposed to do!!! And just all around good moral and support for all. This week we worked on our dances, added some new songs to the Oklahoma! Script and staged the curtain call. Next week I told all of our actors that we will be working on acting, inflection and projecting our voices. So get ready for some work! And of course fun :) Please remember to send in costume ideas from the list that was sent home. You can photograph and send to me or Jeffrey, or bring in your ideas to the studio. Donna, Giovanna’s mom is helping to pull together costumes for the Oklahoma! cast. Thank you!! We promise to make all the shows look great. It is such a privilege to work with your loved ones. We are having the time of our lives each week. ’til next… Terese And on behalf of Molly and Jeffrey

Hi Everyone,
Great rehearsal this week. We have actually started to run through each show from start to finish! We are also starting to collect costumes. Thank you to those who brought in ideas. They look great. Check out Giovanna in her beautiful red Ado Annie dress!! Our Grease group is totally swinging with Tristin adding his amazing voice to “Beauty School Drop Out”. And of course our Super Troupers from Mamma Mia! Alyssa is rocking the song. And Milo is our strong Male ingenue! He is wonderful!! And wait til you see Ciaran cutting a rug in our dance numbers! We had such a wonderful talk with our friend William this week as well. He told us all about how much he loves broadway and about his dream. ’Til next…. Terese And on behalf of Jeffrey and Molly

Hello Everyone! Rehearsals are going great! After only 4 rehearsals we’ve gone through all the songs and dialogue, started choreography and staged almost all of the the numbers. I am so proud of everyone. They are working very hard each week, genuine “Super Trupers” ! This week the Mamma Mia group staged the title song complete with background dancers. In Oklahoma! We finished staging the big group number “Farmer and the Cowman”. Our Greasers polished the opening scene and song “Summer Nights” and I learned about Jazz Hands from Sulli ! :-) A true thespian. Next week you will be getting some costume forms to fill out. We want the shows to look great so we are bringing in some volunteer experts from each show who happen to be moms and dads of some of our participants. Thank you!! Molly, our wonderful Music Director has made recordings of all of the songs from each show as we will be singing it. This will be available on line soon for you to practice with. That’s the up date for now…more to come. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me here: giammarco.terese@gmail.com Thank you all! Terese And on behalf of Molly and Jeffrey |
