Here is the text of an email from Miss O'Neill, the Show Choir director:
Hello, parents and students!
Attached is a document with all the specifics of next weekend's competition - please read it carefully!
Just a few other loose ends:
Parent volunteers!
If you are interested in helping us out with some show choir stuff this year, including chaperoning competitions, here is the link to be able to sign up for that!

Solo competition/Showtime auditions!
This past week got a little crazy between making up for lost rehearsal time when everyone was sick and RENT auditions and getting ready for our first competition, so we will be hearing solo competition/Showtime solo auditions on MONDAY during opposite rehearsals. We will hear Swingsingers during Legacy rehearsal and Legacy during Swingsingers rehearsal. Double agents, if you are interested in auditioning something, we will either try to sneak you in quickly during a break OR we may try to schedule something during the school day with Mr. Barsch, maybe during your lunch period, for example.
Rehearsal times this week!
All times are on the calendar, which you can always find at http://www.bataviamusic.org/calendar.html
But just as a reminder, each group only has two rehearsals this week.
LEGACY: Monday from 8-9 and Tuesday from 7-9
SWINGSINGERS: Monday from 6:30-8 and Wednesday from 4:30-6:30
Preview rehearsal!
We will be opening rehearsal for an informal "preview" of the shows on Monday evening. We will have our band with us to rehearse, so at the very end of Swingsingers' rehearsal (7:40) and at the very beginning of Legacy's rehearsal (8:00) we will be doing one run-through of the show with the band for anyone that wants to come watch. Again, it's an informal preview, just in the choir room, but students, you are highly encouraged to come 20 minutes early or stay 20 minutes late to check out what's happening with your peers. Parents, you are also welcome to this part of rehearsal, if you'd like to come!
(We will avoid hearing auditions during this time so that students can watch the preview shows if they'd like.)
As always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.
-Melissa O'Neill
Thanks, and we hope to see you this weekend in Manteno!
