(It’s different than your home make-up, which just melts under the stage lights!) I will bring some stage make-up for these sessions. While some of the students may be able to apply their own make-up, many will not, so if you can help at Dress Rehearsal and/or the night of the performance – we need you! Our practice sessions will be Monday – 5:00 – 5:30, Tuesday, 5:00 – 5:30, or Wednesday, 6:00 – 6:30. Please have your child sign up for the time that works best for them. </span></p>  </font><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: xx-large; "><span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 14pt; ">COSTUMES – We could use some help organizing costumes. As soon as you put the pieces together for your child’s costume, please send them in so we can label them and hang them on the racks. We will begin practicing with some costumes next Wednesday, so the children get used to changing quickly between scenes. If you have any questions about your child’s costume, please call me (425-802-2168) or email me (</span><a href="mailto:smccarthy@stmadsophie.org"><span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 14pt; ">smccarthy@stmadsophie.org</span></a><span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 14pt; ">) as soon as possible so we all have time to be ready. We need to be prepared for Monday as if it was the actual performance date, since it’s our only time to rehearse in that facility.
