Thank you, everyone who was able to make it to rehearsal.
Thirty-nine people made it to first large group!
The cast helped arrange chairs in a large circle onstage.
Books were handed out and shared. Additional books will arrive, hopefully next week, along with rehearsal cds.
Sarah and Dave then spoke a bit, talked about show dates, answered questions and rehearsal began at 7 pm.
The group read through Act 1. When the cue came for songs, the group listened to and sang with the rehearsal cd.
"The Wells Fargo Wagon" sounded pretty good for the first time. There were lots of feet tapping!
The group was introduced to the River City School Board: The Black Hills Blend Quartet.
The group also learned that though Sarah was a disc jockey for ten years, she has absolutely no idea how to run a cd player.
Special thanks to Dean Peterson for supplying the cd and cd player. (And for cautiously eyeing the music score!)
The new members of River City are:
Jim and Betty Dunn (The Stubborn Iowan Couple)
Larry Enright (Constable Locke)
Myca Ryan
Janyce Cameron
CD players are malicious. They know what you want and do everything they can to prevent you from having it. So it goes. Maybe a good kick...?
