Moco Goes Hollywood Information, Rehearsal Schedules, and Show Order MoCo Goes Hollywood Hello families, We are extremely excited to return to the Redfern Arts Center for live performances after more than a year of being away from the stage. The students have been incredible over the last year and they continue to work very hard in preparation for their return to the stage. We have sent out the commitment letter to you all and we would like to remind you to refresh your memory with the three policies required for a student to perform. There is a change to the rehearsal schedule which will be included in this packet. If you have not signed the letter yet, please do so and return to the front desk. Both MoCo and the Redfern have COVID protocols for performers and audience members. All this information is included in the packet. This year the show will have a very different look from our normal shows and below are the changes and explanations behind these decisions. First, with a limit of people backstage, we had to spilt students into 2 separate shows. We are limited to the number of people we can allow backstage, which includes performers, staff, and volunteers. There is a Saturday cast and a Sunday cast. Each cast will have 2 shows on their performance day. Saturday’s cast performs at 4pm and 7pm on June 5th, while Sunday’s cast performs at 2pm and 5pm on Sunday June 6th. Each show will run about an hour as we are not able to have an intermission. Depending on what classes they are in, some students perform both days while others only perform on one day. Each show has completely different classes performing, so the two shows are not the same. If your child is performing both days, this means you will have to attend, or stream shows on both days to see all their classes. Having a limit on people backstage was the deciding factor when making this decision. Unfortunately, there was no way to make sure every student performed all their dances on the same day. We had to look at the entire picture when laying out the show and could not look at individual students and when they would be performing. Second, because there is a limit to numbers backstage and with the Redfern’s and MoCo’s protocols, we had to redesign our backstage layout. In working with the Redfern, we have increased the number of dressing rooms backstage and have reduced the numbers of people per room. Every room will have a volunteer chaperone with the students and students will have socially distanced space for themselves and their personal belongings. Every dressing room will have a TV for students to be able to watch the show when not on stage. We feel this will give them a sense of being all together while we keep people separated as much as possible during the performance. Our volunteer coordinators have laid out a plan to safely move students to and from stage. We will also have different sign in locations when entering the theatre. This will be based off the location of your child’s dressing room within the building. There will be additional information going out about this in the next few weeks. Third, we are limited to 150 audience seats per performance for safety purposes. The theatre normally seats 570 people, and by limiting the seats we had to look at how we could best serve “Transforming lives through movement and creative expression.” MoCo Arts ~ 40 Roxbury Street ~ Keene NH 03431 ~ 603-357-2100 ~ www.moco.org our students families in the sale of tickets. Each student will be allotted 2 tickets per day. If a child performs on Saturday, they will get 2 tickets to one of the shows (but not both. You also may not split the tickets between shows). The Redfern has laid out their socially distanced seating chart in pairs of two and cannot adjust the chart. Therefore, tickets will be sold in pairs of 2, meaning you must purchase 2 tickets. There is one ticket price and that is $25 per ticket ($50 for the pair). With only 150 tickets per show, our revenue is greatly affected, plus our costs are higher given the added dressing rooms and rehearsal day. With the change in ticketing and to assure every student’s family can see them dance, there will be no online sales. The Redfern was not able to adapt their ticketing software to make this possible for what we needed. You will be able to call the Redfern’s box office at 603-358-2168 starting May 17th. They will have the students’ names and you will be able to choose which of the two shows you attend while supplies last (every family will be able to attend). Starting May 26th all unsold pairs of tickets will be released to the public. We know this is not ideal, but it is the best possible scenario given all the limitations in place. One exception to this will be on the last performance on Sunday. We have made it possible for the seniors’ families to have additional tickets for the last performance on Sunday (all tickets on Sunday sold to seniors’ families will be for the last show). We will once again have our senior moment on stage this year at the end of the last show. We will be reaching out to the senior families separately with more information regarding tickets. We thank all families for understanding this exception for these students and families in their last MoCo performance. Fourth, as you may know we have been pre-recording our performances this year and streaming them to our community. We will live stream these performances over the weekend at the scheduled performance time. You will need to contact the Redfern’s box office at 603-358-2168 to purchase the streaming package. The cost to stream the shows is $25 and it will allow you to watch all four performances over the weekend. If you perform on Saturday only and your friend performs on Sunday, this is a great option to watch and support them. This also gives the opportunity for you to see every performance of your child, as well as have family and friends see them. We know this is a big change from years past and we believe this is the best path forward given the current state of the world at this point. We are greatly restricted on the revenue we can bring in with in person ticketing and cost are greater than a normal year. We understand this may increase the cost from a normal year. We believe the kids deserve to be back on stage live and ask for your understanding with all the changes. Our entire staff has been working extremely hard the last year to keep the kids engaged. This has included figuring out a way to return to in person performances while keeping the kids, you, and our staff safe. We thank you for your understanding and continued support. I look forward to seeing you all at the theatre to celebrate your amazing kids!

  • A Musical Memoir
    DICK VAN DYKE – STEP IN TIME! – A MUSICAL MEMOIR World Premiere in Audrey Skirball Kenis Theater at the Geffen Playhouse on December 16 LOS ANGELES, October 13, 2010 — Stage and screen icon Dick Van Dyke will appear onstage at the Geffen Playhouse in Dick Van Dyke – Step in Time! – A Musical Memoir, a world premiere production that highlights the artist’s truly scrumptious six-decades in the entertainment industry. The play, which is co- written by Van Dyke and the play’s director Joshua Ravetch, is a living autobiography pulling stories and songs from Van Dyke’s celebrated career. To help bring the show to life with music, Van Dyke will be joined on stage by Eric Bradley, Bryan Chadima and Mike Mendyke – three young singers who together with Van Dyke form the singing quartet “The Vantastix.” Step in Time, named for Richard and Robert Sherman’s song and Van Dyke’s signature dance number in Mary Poppins, will begin in the intimate Audrey Skirball Kenis Theater at the Geffen Playhouse with previews on December 8, 2010. The official opening is on December 16, 2010 and it will run through January 16, 2011. "I'm having the best so-called retirement of anyone I know, doing what I love doing," said Van Dyke. "Eventually I may try something less strenuous." Geffen Playhouse Producing Director Gil Cates and his team have been collaborating with Van Dyke and Ravetch on the development on this piece. Ravetch previously worked at the Geffen developing and directing the world premiere of Wishful Drinking with Carrie Fisher.

  • Mary Poppins
    MARY POPPINS Mary Poppins is a musical with music and lyrics by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman, with additional music and lyrics by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe, and a book by Julian Fellowes. The musical is based on a series of children's books by P. L. Travers and the 1964 Disney film, and is a fusion of various elements from the two. Produced by Walt Disney Theatrical and Cameron Mackintosh, and directed by Richard Eyre with co-direction from Matthew Bourne who also acted as co-choreographer with Stephen Mear, the original West End production opened in December 2004 and received two Olivier Awards, one for Best Actress in a Musical and the other for Best Theatre Choreography. Following the success of the West End production, a Broadway production with a nearly identical creative team debuted on November 16, 2006 at the New Amsterdam Theatre. Broadway performer Ashley Brown was brought on board to play the title role, and Gavin Lee, who had originated the role of Bert in the West End production, reprised his role in the Broadway production. From the “Mary Poppins Education Series – The Magic of Mary”: “To create the magic used in Mary Poppins, the producers turned to celebrated theatrical illusionist Jim Steinmeyer – famous for his work with magicians, including David Copperfield and Siegfried & Roy - and for the flying effects, the legendary Flying by Foy, who have set new standards for flying on the Broadway stage for over 50 years.” Ashley Brown: “I wasn’t flown for the first time until about two weeks before we opened in New York…and it’s really become one of my favorite moments, because I can see the faces of the people for the first time, and just see how everybody is reacting.” Gavin Lee: “When I walk around the proscenium arch and tap dance and sing upside down, I can hear the audience every night, applauding, the kids gasping and pointing up there and it’s just a thrill to be able to do this magical sort of trick.” We’ve found a whole new spin… …if you reach for the heavens, you get the stars thrown in! We Love to See You Fly.
