First Coat PopUps

This Saturday  20th May.

Meet: 9am at the Empire theatre for a warm up. (We hadn’t anticipated new markets to be nearby so think about parking).

Wear: Bright colours.

Singing: we will have a walk and sing at suitable spots around the city centre – depending on weather and other art events. See the list of songs in Astrid’s post below.

Finish and Lunch:  finish around 11-11.30am  followed by a lunch and some staged filming (this was to be at Japanese gardens usq with a picnic – but weather is not looking good  so we will see what film director Chris suggests on the day)

 

 

Extra Practices

Need some extra practice?  There are 2 practices on offer:

Tuesday 9th at 7pm –  Andrew & Marion’s place crn Herbert and Kitchener – women may go next door to Ritamay’s if we have a big roll up. (Hall not available)

Thursday 11th at 7.15pm at deMolay (available)

These will be ‘do-it-ourselves’ practices of parts and a chance to be ready to impress Astrid the following Tuesday!!!

Hope to see you at one or both.  In the meantime we have some words to learn and great practice tracks under repertoire.
