The objective of the sixth week is to maintain past work, to block and practice Act 1, Scene 11, “Wells Fargo Wagon,” begin choreography for Shipoopi, and to continue setting previously blocked scenes to the Palace stage, and to finish blocking the non musical scenes.
PLEASE NOTE: We have decided the makeup of the Shipoopi chorus: It will be ALL KIDS, plus the quartet and the NAMED Pickalittle ladies, Minus Mrs. Shinn, and of course Greg. (and also Kevin Bookmeier, who is one of the dancers.) OTHER ADULTS will not be needed for this number.
