Callback schedule

Here is a proposed callbacks schedule. What I am thinking is that we can double up shows to save time. You will have to quickly give out the sides and explain what you are looking for. Then, give them a few minutes to look it over and then start seeing them read for it in pairs or what have you. Be very organized about who you want to see read for what with whom. Stay on schedule.

Schedule:

3:30-3:50 - Andre/Kacie

3:55 - 4:20 - Tess/Adrienne/Sarah

4:20-4:45 - Mason/Mike

4:45-5:05 - Darby/Colleen

5:05-5:30 -- Sam/Chris/Sean

At 5:30, you will have to meet as a group to discuss casting. Mr. Moore will mediate. Please approach casting with an open mind! Historically, we have not made many, if any cuts in the spring. Try to give everyone something who comes out to audition. If there are dead-locks in this process, Mr. Moore and I will have to make the final decisions.

Thanks.
