Production Meeting: Dec 13

Earl was not able to make it due to a conflicting change in his schedule
Tony had a task to perform that pre-empted the meeting.

ALTAR BOYZ

• Platforms are done, steel arches delivered today for assemble.
• Looked at the LCD screen and PowerPoint for the Soul Sensor display; Dave was initially asking for a larger monitor until he realized that we wanted to use an LCD and not a CRT unit. We are going to slap together a mock-up so he can look at it on Monday.
  
• We will be ordering a new set of gel-strings: we have them budgeted under capital costs.
• Put in check request so Ellis can start shopping costumes.
• The new mics have shipped from Sweetwater.
  

Wizard of Oz

• Gene reports that they've figured out an effective way to accomplish the Collapsing House effect
• Earl agreed to place Munchkin- land downstage of the ground row to accommodate artwork.
• The Munchkin Land groundrow is cut.
  
• Discussed Scarecrow wagon with Gene; discussed options for "washtub" base for the pole.
• plan & section given to Patrick; I will email a revised set to reflect the drop relocation.
• Need drawing of throne unit
• Need drawing of yellow brick road (accurate to stage)
• Need color elevations for all - will have for Monday
• Earl will shop fabric for green curtain.
  

Martha Mitchell Calling

• The show continues to get a good reception: the school matinée was very well received
• the NEW TIMES review is out, and we agreed it's a good review event though the first paragraph is a little scary.
• Photo call is set for next Thursday
• There are several post-show meet & greets on the schedule: Carl warns that Annette needs about 15 minutes to get out of costumes and makeup, and that Gordon may not be able to make it due to family commitments.
  

Madeline's Christmas

• Need to order Batteries (will last into Altar Boyz)

FOOTLOOSE

• Dave will be holding call backs on Monday
• Sean McClelland was in earlier to meet with Dave about his basic set concept
• Re: above, Gene will investigate the possibility of putting the 20' turntable on a slipstage: no guarantee that this is on our budget, but he will research it.
• Dave is setting a follow-up meeting with Sean for this Wednesday; Babs, Ellis, Patrick and Chris will probably sit in.
