Class Rehearsals
Students will prepare for this production within their regular classes in the Mar/Apr and May/Jun terms. We ask that you remain committed to your course and avoid transferring during the rehearsal process. This is not a compulsory event, and your child will still have the opportunity to explore the theme fully within class time.
Production Week
Production Week will take place from 1 to 4 June 2023. You will be given your child’s exact performance/on-stage rehearsal date and time by May. Siblings may, by request, be cast into the same show. For students who are performing in You've Got a Friend in Me, classes during the week are delivered in the format of on-stage rehearsals. There is no class on campus for performers during the Production Week of 27 May – 4 June 2023. NO MAKE-UP CLASS is required.
