***Attention Singers***

Middle School Musical 2021

Yes, the show will go on! We are excited to announce that we will still be
performing a musical this year but in a new, safe way. The musical will be
professionally recorded at school and released as an online production. The
storyline features creative students who write whimsical, imaginative poems
but one student is too nervous to create and share his poem. After
seemingly giving up all hope, the other students help him shed self-doubt
and encourage him to be brave and share his talents. Think of the great
things that can happen when we encourage each other!

The musical is Could You Hug a Cactus? Listen and check it out here
<www.bbbpress.com/musicals/could-you-hug-a-cactus/>.

Students have the opportunity to audition for a solo role (singing and
speaking parts) or be a part of the ensemble (large group singing only). To
ensure safety, solo roles will be video and audio recorded individually at
school with assistance. Virtual students have the option of auditioning for
a solo role and recording themselves at home or coming to school to record
individually after school hours. The ensemble will be video and audio
recorded together socially distanced. The recordings will then be edited
together to create the entire production. If there are enough students
interested, there is the potential for a double cast.

For audition and time commitment information, click here
<docs.google.com/document/d/1dfZaygspgkdOADNAw4NqDLR20Lam3IbwL5EHVZ7QtkY/edit?usp=sharing>.
To sign up for an audition time, fill out the FORM
<docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1op66cBqN0oDhL6EUMiCRXmWtTkwVkqMPb1fYcUYX0r0/edit?usp=sharing>.
The audition packet is available here
<docs.google.com/document/d/1sb_nB6yxFfc13OgeKjb39GjvJH5K16gT2aUzwFS30hc/edit?usp=sharing>
or paper copies are available by the choir room. Because it is a virtual
production, there will be no need for stage crew.

The exact release date of the video production will be given after
recordings have been made.

For questions, please contact the director, Mrs. Stowers at
[email protected].

People who have been in *close contact* with someone who has COVID-19. This

they are well for at least 24 hours, or if an alternative diagnosis is
made, until they can return to school according to that diagnosis.
Encourage the individual to be evaluated by their healthcare provider for
an alternative diagnosis other than COVID-19.

What does it mean to be a *”**close contact**”*?

You are a close contact if any of the following situations happened while
you spent time with a person with COVID-19 (even if they didn’t have
symptoms and were wearing a mask):

You were within 6 feet of the person for a total of 15 minutes or more over
the course of a day. You provided care at home to the person.

You had direct physical contact with the person (hugged or kissed them).

You shared eating or drinking utensils with the person.

You had a sleepover with the person.
They sneezed, coughed, or somehow got respiratory droplets on you.
