Talent Show Auditions! “T3: Taters, Talent & Treats”

Mark Your Calendars so you won’t miss this exciting, fun-filled family event!

“T3: Taters, Talent, and Treats” is coming on Friday, April 5, 2013 to our campus or a location near EE!!!!

We will have lots of family style fun at this year’s fundraiser including a baked potato supper, a cake decorating contest, a talent show, and a silent auction

Students:  If you are interested in auditioning for the Talent Show then you must sign up with Mrs. Campbell for auditions to be held on Tuesday, February 5th; Wednesday, February 6th; and Thursday, February 7th (or by special appointment) in the afternoons.  Various time slots are available.  The guidelines for auditioning are as follows:

1) Mrs. Campbell will have final approval over the content (including music) and costumes employed in your act. 

2) I am looking for all sorts of interesting talent so don’t be afraid to come and audition!  The talent show will be part of a “play” I’ve written so we need singers, dancers, musicians, magicians, comedy acts, unusual talents, actors, etc.

3) We have three speaking roles designated for students in the sixth grade or above, so actors are welcome to audition, too!  I need at least one of the actors to be able to sing or dance….

4) No lip syncing will be allowed unless it’s part of a comedic act!

5) We have a small electronic keyboard at EE available for the audition, but you are also encouraged to video tape yourself playing and put it on a flash drive or a CD so that I can see/hear your audition. Depending on where the fundraiser is held will determine what type of piano we will have available for the show.

6) Bands should video tape themselves and put it on a flash drive or CD so that I can see/hear your audition, please.

7) I will choreograph a G-rated dance number “a la High School Musical” style, so you may audition for just that part of the show if you wish.  You should come prepared with music and a minute or two of your style of dance to show me, please.  I will have a CD player available for use.

8) Auditions are limited to three minutes each.

9) All who are cast in the show will be required to attend at least three rehearsals – two are tentatively scheduled for the last week of March and one in the week before the show.  Dancers will have to attend two extra rehearsals….tentatively scheduled for the last week in February.

Parents:  If you have any items you would like to donate for the silent auction, please drop them off in Mrs. Campbell/Mrs. Phillips classroom (in the north portable building -- first room on the right).  If you would like to volunteer to help with the activities associated with “T3” then please let me know that as well.  I have a teacher mailbox near the lockers that will be a good way to communicate with me at this point.   Thank you!!! 

I’m looking forward to a fun evening with you, your families, and your friends! 

Mrs. Campbell
