REHEARSALS: We'll begin rehearsing in late February and have a fairly traditional rehearsal schedule (4-5 night a week) for about 4 weeks into March. Ideally, these rehearsals will be Sunday afternoons and Monday-Thursday evenings. In April, rehearsals will be more infrequent (1-2 times a week) to run the show, spot check, and keep it maintained. Then we'll jump back in for tech week April 29th.
