Roosevelt's online CALL BOARD for cast and crew

→ REMINDERS!
* Bring ALL of your undergarments, socks, shoes, etc. that you will need for your costume ASAP. Think sports bra, running shorts, and whatever keeps you covered, even when you are changing clothes backstage in the wings. The undergarments will be kept at school with your costume through the end of the production. PUT YOUR NAME ON THE INSIDE (so it's hidden from the audience) OF EVERYTHING THAT IS YOUR PERSONAL PROPERTY!

* Remember, NO PERSONAL MAKE UP WILL BE USED FOR THE SHOW. YOU MUST USE THE STAGE MAKE UP. Really. Even guys. I promise.

* If you are NOT wearing a wig, if at all possible, do your hair at home before coming to the theatre to save time, energy, and space. Thanks!
