Knowledge is love and light and vision. ~ Helen Keller

Great job today, Thank you! I am very grateful for those of you who make EVERY rehearsal and make it your personal best!




NOTE Schedule Change – On the Main Stage

Tuesday March 16th rehearsal, has changed again: Called KATE, KELLER, JAMES, ANNIE, HELEN, PERCY,MARTHA and VINEY for scene 23 waiting at home, also called are the SHADOW PEOPLE ANAGNOS and JIMMIE ONLY for scene 26 Let Her come!, and lastly AUNT EV for scene 27 Homecoming.

Some might have conflicts for this schedule change that I may already know about, but please make every effort to attend this rehearsal.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

We are progressing through rehearsals very smoothly! I am done working with Annie and Helen solely now, and am going to start to call the ensemble cast members to rehearsals.

Today, Sunday March 14th, the following cast members are called: ANNIE, HELEN, and KELLER. Plus the DOG “Belle”



NOTE Schedule Change, Due to Pump Boys last performance- Tuesday March 16th rehearsal, has changed: Called KATE, KELLER, JAMES, ANNIE, HELEN, for scene 23 waiting at home, also called are the SHADOW PEOPLE ANAGNOS and JIMMIE ONLY for scene 26 Let Her come!, and lastly VINEY and AUNT EV for scene 27 Homecoming.

We have a Dog...

Another great rehearsal! Thank you for everyone who attended. We have a “Belle” dog, Connor Kingdom’s Golden Retriever seems to fit. If the dog can handle being on stage and get use to our actors I hope he can work out- we do have two back up dogs if need be.
 The schedule change will not happen, we will go on as in your schedule. For Thursday’s rehearsal ANNIE, HELEN, & PERCY are called. ANNIE & HELEN please think over what scenes or parts of scenes you would like to re-cover after we are done with these two scenes. Thank you for all your hard work!

Successful Read-through!

Yesterday’s read through was very successful! I am very excited about our cast and the dynamic relationships that have already been shown. Thank you for all who could attend and thank you to Pump Boys members coming over after tech; I and your fellow cast members appreciate your effort! If you have any questions regarding scheduling, like conflicts, please inform me earlier rather than later. If you have questions on character, feel free to email me or come earlier to your next called rehearsal. Please feel free to use the Education Extension Packet given to you at the read through, and I believe Ted has some extras, as character research. Work on your accent as much as possible, but if you are having difficulty please just ask me  If you have less than ten lines please have them memorized and be off book by your first rehearsal call, this makes blocking easier for all involved. All characters with a majority of line please be off book by the week before tech week as in April 13th 2010.
Our next rehearsal, Thursday 3/4/10 will be Scene Numbers 8b & 10 with JAMES KELLER, ANNIE & HELEN
