Hi everyone –
Thank you to all of you who are in the cast of “Annie!” I look forward to working with you on this fun musical! There will be some scripts available on Monday, but if you want to get one immediately, go ahead and print the one here on the website. Email me if you have any questions, and I’ll see everyone this Monday at 2:30 for a read through of the script.
Mr. Bergman
Hi all –
Annie tryouts are on the 18th! On that day, you will sing and do some movement, so please wear comfortable clothing to move in.
Your choices of songs for the Annie tryouts are now available here. If you are interested in a female role, please choose either Tomorrow excerpt or Maybe tryout. If you are interested in a male role, please prepare the NYC tryout.
On Wednesday the 20th, everyone will be doing some reading from the script, so there isn’t anything to prepare.
If you have any questions, email Mr. Bergman.
Thanks!
From Mr. Bergman:
Hi everyone –
I hope you are all having a great summer! Mine has been equal parts fulfilling and relaxing, but I also look forward to working with you all on the classic musical, “Annie,” this coming fall!
The general schedule is now available on the website.
The specific materials to prepare will be available before Labor Day. There will be a choice of songs to sing, along with some “sides” – pages from the script, to become familiar with.
There will be more information coming in the following weeks, but several of you had asked me about the days we’d be rehearsing, so I wanted to post that first.
See you soon!
Mr. Bergman
The Fall 2017 Middle School Musical will be Annie: The Musical!
Tryouts will be September 18 & September 20, from 2 – 4:30pm. Students will be asked to be at BOTH days. There will be tryout materials available in August.
Performances will be December 1 (7pm), 2 (7pm), and 3 (2pm), 2017 in the LHS Auditorium.
Rehearsal schedule will be available mid-summer.
Hi all!
I look forward to working with everyone on “Charlotte’s Web.” Depending on the number of students who try out, I may, like last year, double cast some roles, and add a Saturday matinee, so everyone performs at least twice. If so, you’ll know this before the first read through on March 2.
The tryouts are Monday Feb 13 and Thursday Feb 16, from 2:30 – 4:30. It is best that students show up for both days, but if you have a conflict, please email me ahead of time (some students have already done so).
I recommend looking through the script ahead of time, as you will have a better tryout if you are familiar with the script beforehand. Script sides that will be used at the tryouts are:
pp. 5-6 (until Third Member: “…that’s all you need to know.”)
pp. 18-19 (Wilbur and Charlotte)
pp. 37 (Homer: “Make room…”) to pp. 38 (Arable: “Sounds good, Edith.”)
Email me if you have any questions.
Mr. Bergman
The cast list for Reigning Cats & Dogs! has been announced – see it here!
From Mr. Bergman:
Thank you to everyone for your great work at the tryouts! Everyone should be at rehearsal on this coming Monday at 2:30.
Scripts will be available online over the weekend [Ed. available here] – please print it out, and put it in a folder for the first rehearsal. Sheet music and audio recordings will also become available over the weekend.
I will be assigning who is in what songs next week.
The rehearsal schedule will be online by Monday’s rehearsal.
Email Mr. Bergman with any other questions or concerns.
Hi Everyone!
I hope you are all getting excited about “Reigning Cats & Dogs!” Here is the information for the tryouts – everybody will be asked to sing one of these:
– If you interested in a featured role of any kind, you should learn the first three pages of “Purr-fect!” The sheet music, as well as a recording of the song, are available here. You do NOT have to have the song memorized, but you should be prepared to sing the song by yourself.
– If you are only interested in an ensemble role, you can sing “My Country Tis Of Thee.” For this excerpt, you can sing with a friend if you want.
There will also be a small dance to learn (for both boys AND girls). It will be taught at the tryouts. This is only to see how comfortable you are with dance / movement. So wear comfortable shoes.
Email me with any questions.

Everyone should receive an email with a link to the survey – all six choices are listed, and you can pick up to three. Voting deadline is the end of Christmas Day. After that the selected play will be announced.
