Graffiti-come a little farther onstage into the light on your first entrance
Good energy at the start
Good projection at the start

Keep your diction up, team

1.4
Vanessa-don’t go all the way up on the platform during the song…you’re out of mic range (that’s why you’ve been cutting out)
Sonny-touch base with the pit prior to tomorrow’s performance and nail down your vocal entrance at ‘good morning’…it’s been a bit sketchy
Good work!

1.5
A bit of a weird note, but the family hugs are looking forced…come on, pretend you love each other J

Good timing here…and better chair placement, ladies!

1.7
Sonny-grab the paper a little earlier…as Graffiti’s leaving
Great investment ensemble…I believed it
Fantastic energy here…wish you had an audience!

1.8

Great exit change

1.12/1.13

Piragua/Hannah-transition between the two songs seems too long; can we tighten it up by a few beats?

Ensemble-please

2.1

Ensemble-some of you are really starting to play with this…good!
Sound-lost quite a bit of the lyrics during this song…cause?
Usnavi-you got too far offstage right at the end of the transition

2.5/2.6
Ensemble-instead of turning your bodies out at the end of ‘Alabanza’, just turn your head toward the audience.

2.7/2.8/2.9
Rosarios-get out of there just a bit faster
Dani-stay tighter to the chair in this scene…stay in the shop!

2.10/2.11
Piragua-sustain your energy all the way through your exit…no dropping character

2.12
Benny-convince yourself that this relationship might work through this song…but fail; let her ‘perhaps even longer’ line start to weird him out

2.13/2.14
Sonny-a little too far stage right again…move in toward the 2-4
All-someone needs to pick up the flag in the back of the bodega…shouldn’t be there for the finale
Sm Ensemble a little more direct reentry for the bows, please

Final Notes: Preview

General Notes:

Almost performance energy and timing…damn close, just jack it up that last little bit!  You’ve got the car, now drive it!

Actors-you know the lighting issues…be responsible for finding your own light

From here out you will not be getting notes from me.  My responsibility for the show now moves out front, to our audiences.  Stage Managers, Dance Captains, McFadden, Randy, Gordon, Caldwell, and Andrew will have the opportunity each night to provide feedback on the show relevant to their position, should it be necessary right at Call, so it is super-vital that everyone be on-time.  If you notice something about your show that needs fixing, bring it to one of their (or my) collective attention so it can be addressed by the proper person...don't handle it on your own unless it's a very minor thing.  In an ideal world we'd be able to offer our colleagues corrective feedback and know that it would land in the proper way, in the spirit of the best show possible and without defensiveness; that said, it's an awful lot to ask from passionate young artists.  Speak up, but in the right way!

...and now for the specific notes:

1.1
Graffiti-find your light at the start of the show
All-good energy at the start
Usnavi-stay in the bodega for ‘you must take the A train’…lighting

Notes from Randy (2nd Dress)

In general, great GREAT JOB EVERYONE!

A few focus things...

OPENING:
Graffiti...cleaner moves, don't forget on Usnavi's store slow moves...ie MATRIX MOVES

IN THE HEIGHTS:
1)  more conversational in movement so it reads to back of house.
2)  feet are way to planted in place throughout the show move around with in your spaces. This doesn't mean change blocking, party in place around your place. Change up directions
3) more energy on buttons of songs in general.
4) MY PEOPLE...NO LINES, GROUP IT UP...BUT NO LINES

96000:
1) 2nd level SR. Move on more, hidden behind wall
2) move around more at end of song...very stagnant! 
3) stronger posed on button

Paciencia Y FE
1) hopscotch needs to be cleaner, started great but got muddy in the middle
2) ladies (Cubans) wonderful, just remember a bit more aristocratic. Stiffer upper body, however sexier hips!
3) mother/daughter...open up when going from one couple to the other!
4) couple great work keep it going!
5) take the lean in bigger...missed it.

WHEN YOUR HOME:
ENSEMBLE...LINES!!!!!!   Nnnnnnoooooooo lines!!!!!!!!!

CLUB/BLACKOUT
1) great energy at top of number...just remember get more earthy and bend knees, stomp it out...party!
2) Vanessa/partner...its to be more hot and heavy, way to relaxed, remember your making Usnavi jealous.
3)rhythms/vocals out of sync during last tempo change / ensemble.
4) intent in BLACKOUT was great just reminder to get lower from ensemble.

CARNIVAL:
1) SL lines lines lines!!!
2) during instrumental dance break, live it up, way to subtle.
3) Usnavi/Vanessa break loose on your partnering section
4) ALL: energy up at the end of number...was a bit weak on button.

Thank you all for taking such GIANT leaps forward in the show. Great focus in general
And I truly mean that.  have fun and enjoy the experience!

Randy

So...an inclement weather day.

As the saying goes, 'hope for the best, prepare for the worst'...

As we spoke about last night, there was the possibility for inclement weather cancellation or delay today, and, sure enough, here we go with a full cancellation of school.  Here's what that means to all of us:

-there is no show tonight: we cannot host a performance if the district decides to cancel school and evening events.
-this show won't be made up: if this were an intimate setting show, and we were dealing with a limited opportunity for our friends, family, loved ones, and community, then that would be one thing; as we have literally over 1000 available seats for our audiences over 6 remaining performances, everyone who wants to will be able to see our show.
-tickets can be exchanged: anyone with tickets to tonight's performance can exchange their tickets for a future performance.  All they need to do is email me at mjamie@pps.net and I will get that taken care of.
-there is no work being done on the show today...: this ain't like The Waves...we are good to go on the show except for the programming of some lights.  Don't come in!!!
-...except on your own: everyone needs to go over the show at some point today on their own.  Listen to the music, mentally run through your entrances, exits, choreography, etc.  This is no small thing!  We need to get going tomorrow as if today never happened, and we can't do that if even one person takes a full mental break and has to be brought back up to speed tomorrow.
-Rest Up!: take today as the blessing in disguise it may prove to be.  Rest, de-stress, relax, take a day to get well, etc.  We have all been working very hard, and a little R&R may be just what the doctor ordered.

We've already had an audience, and we know how they've reacted to the show.  I wish I could sum up all of the wonderful things said to me and emailed to me in the wake of our show last night...you'd all start getting misty-eyed (and we all know that, though good and a huge leap forward in many ways, wasn't even our best work).  Take this day to recover your body, energy, and spirit.  We're gonna kick it off properly tomorrow.

Be well team!  See you tomorrow...

Notes: 2nd Dress

**- equals stuff for me…ignore it!

Good job rolling with the demands of the evening…great work team!

Almost uniformly, I need stronger projection from my team…come strong and committed to the sung dialogue.  There’s only so much the overhead mics and head mics can do…use good technique

No running backstage…or onstage for that matter.  Safety first.  Know your travel path and plan ahead far enough in advance to make it.

There’s a difference between playful banter and disrespect.  I’m receiving a number of reports that we have cast members crossing the line with fellow ensemble members and staff.  That should never be our company.  I take this very seriously and will address it with the company today, and the individuals solo.

1.1
piragua-it’s early…you can be tired/slow it up a bit

Nina-gotta see her anxiety drive her upstage…let her get overwhelmed by everything
**-mute the stair light when nina goes upstage
nina-‘oh god, what would my parents say’ needs to be much more fearful…
nina-don’t see abuela until you hear her say ‘nina’

1.3
sonny-if you’re going to be back there, it has to be motivated…be doing something, since some of us can see you

Ensemble/Benny/Nina-the Bennett park thing is a flashback now…play it as such
