The End

One last blog post-- just wanted to thank you guys for making my last Lincoln show such an amazing experience. I loved getting to know and work with all of you, and I hope you all had as much fun as I did producing this amazing show. We sold out every performance, created nine fantastic one acts, and got glowing reviews from everyone who saw it.

Seniors, I am so lucky to have grown up with all of you, and cannot express all that you have given me throughout the years, whether you knew it or not. We have seen each other go through all of the weird, awkward, and embarrassing phases of high school and have somehow managed to come out the other end intact and together.

Freshmen, thank you for taking a chance and doing the show, and thank you for being so amazing to work with. I hope theater helped you find your place like it did for me. Know that you are always welcome and wanted in LHS drama.

Jim, thank you for all your hard work and dedication to this department over the years-- I don't know if you can understand how many kids you have given a safe space where they feel appreciated and wanted. I, for one, will always be in debt to you and this program, and appreciate you letting me work on one last play before leaving.

This isn't a definite goodbye yet-- we still have until Abes-- but a sincere thank you to everyone who helped make this show one of the most rewarding I have ever done. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
I hope I get to see and say goodbye to all of you at Abes on May 30, and I hope that all of you keep doing drama next year.

Thank you all so much.
K


<3 Live, Love, Bilal <3

Week 6

Thanks for an awesome opening weekend everyone! Sorry I haven't posted notes from the last two shows-- I have mostly given notes directly to the people they are about, so it hasn't really been necessary.

Also, we're looking for a house to have the cast party at-- we expect about 35-40 people. If you have a house that can fit all of us and if your parents are willing to have everyone over we would greatly appreciate it.

Opening Night Notes 5/8

There was a lot of backstage noise tonight-- if it happens again I'll have to put a crew member on quiet duty. Remember, the audience can hear EVERYTHING in intimate seating.

Also, if you really would like to play cards, your call time is 5:00. We can't play after magic time so get it all out at the beginning please!

Angelo - "Is there something I can do for you?"
Maya, India, Caleb - Flub on Maya's first line/interruptions?
Natina - Please use a black or brown hair tie-- the one you had on tonight was distracting
Emma - "Because, because" line was weird
Sam - Page 7 "snowmobile club" line jumbled
Ross - What are you mouthing before "I gotta head" on pg 8?
Alex - Keep skates as quiet as possible backstage! I think you may have hit them against the wall
LOL Teis crotch pockets
Lauren- review pg 6 "I know, and"
Lili is an angel
Lili, Cris - keep control of the painting

Thanks for an awesome run, guys!

Everyone: please remember to stay out of sight of the audience when backstage-- they're taped out, so if you're confused ask a crew member where you should be. 

Thanks! 

Makeup Notes 5/6

Reminders: Bring everything I ask you to, or you owe Kiley, your ASM, your director, and your costumer a chocolate bar.

Also, Chris needs a pair compression shorts/bike shorts (or any tight shorts). If any of you could bring in some tomorrow, I would be eternally grateful. 

Prologue-

Caroline: You're good.

Bilal: You need to put on blush. Also, you MUST remember the shoes. I am tired of reminding you.

Her Heart-

Katie: A tad too much blush. I will ask Nickey about the rings tomorrow.

Angelo: You're good.

Sad and Glad-

Caleb: You're good.

Maya: You're good.

India: You're good.

This Hurts-

Natina: You're good.

Andy: You're good.

Getting it Back-

Ben: No makeup at all.

Emma: Your makeup looks much better. You need to borrow the bb cream from Katie every time.

They Fell-

Sam: You're good.

Ross: You're good.

Where it Went-

Alex: You're good.

Kate: You're good.

Story of Hope-

Seeing the Thing:

Lili: Your makeup was good. No rings any more, and please remove the nail polish if possible. (Also, I can't remember if you were wearing earrings, but those are also a no.)

Chris: Remember to bring compression shorts!
