Takes you to the cast list and related information.  NOTE: This is the slightly modified from the previously posted version - includes some additional characters and names.
MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE REVISED CAST LIST ABOVE TO KNOW ALL OF YOUR PARTS SO FAR! 

OK, here it is - the Script for the 2014 Nightly Musical Pageant!  Use this link to download (pdf format) and print the script (NOTE: It is a black and white version to save on printing - those that may need/want the colorized version just contact Chuck). 

Please bring it to the orientation on Sunday as we will be doing a read through at that time (bring a pencil/pen also for notes).  Prior to orientation it is expected that you will study the script as much as you can in order to make the read through go more smoothly.  If you are a singer of any song, note the lyrics well as they may not be what you expect.  Try to be prepared to sing the songs with the revised lyrics at the run through.  If you are a non-specific character according to the cast list, try to be as famiiar as you can with any line/song that is not specifically identified as belonging to a character on the cast list.

We are still in the process of sorting and have additional characters to assign; we may use the read through as an audition of sorts for this purpose.

It is expected that everyone will have plenty to do in the production.  So if your primary role seems not big (e.g., it is only one scene - know that you will be in other scenes as other characters as well).
If you have not registered and confirmed you e-mail in our broadcast e-mail system - do that now by clicking the UPDATE E-MAIL ADDRESS link immediately below
