Little Shop Update

Hello Little Shop Parents,

I have been trying to send an update for days and have struggled to make it happen.  I apologize that this information has not been sent before now.  It is so hard to believe that we open Little Shop next week!  There is some information I would like to share as well as some requests for help over the next three weeks.

1. Tickets are now on sale.  For now, each performance is only allowed 25 audience members.  If that changes with the next Executive Order, we will adjust our capacity accordingly.  Currently opening night is the only show that is sold out.  You may purchase tickets on our website or you may send it with you child and I can send the tickets with them or through email.  If you have questions about tickets or performances, please let me know.
2. Because our audience potential is so small, it is very important that we sell out all of the shows just to be able to cover the cost of the script rental and royalties.  Please help us spread the word as much as possible.  I have attached a flyer and we are posting daily on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.  I would love to be able to add an encore performance because all of our scheduled shows sold out. Maybe that can happen?
3. All audience members will be required to complete COVID-19 attestation and temperature checks prior to entering the theater.  All audience members, as well as the cast and crew, must wear masks for the duration of their time in the building.
4. For a few reasons, I am not comfortable asking students to handle the COVID attestation and temperature checks on audience members.  This is the first area in which I am seeking parent support.  Screenings will begin 30 minutes prior to showtime.
5. Currently students are not allowed to do face-to-face “fundraising,” which means they are not able to man the concessions at intermission as they normally would.  This is another area where I am asking for help from parents.  With only 25 in the audience, concessions will be fairly minimal, but it is important that we try to make some money from concessions to help cover the show’s cost.
6. Rehearsals next week are longer than normal.  My final request for support is to assist with meals for next Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, as well as the following Thursday and Friday.

If you are willing to help with one or more of these items, please sign up HERE.


Thank you for continuing to support your child’s interest in theatre! 
​This show has been a lot of fun even though it is taking place in an unbelievably crazy time.
