Solo critique time is drawing near. The sign up sheet is in the gmail account, so please sign up! For those of you who already signed up, i changed the time slots, so please go in and confirm the new time works for you. we're having two solo critique sessions for the first round of solo critiques.
The first one is 3/6 in arellano. the idea was it was for the undergrads who will be on spring break during the second round, but we have enough time that if anybody's ready to go early or would like some help with their solo, please feel free to sign up that day.
The second is 3/14 in shriver. we have a long haul that day, all the way through the beg. and adv. classes. since we have more time than we need for solo critiques, i will be holding a troupe-wide rhumba/short drum + finale rehearsal from 2:30-4. i realize that the undergrads will just be returning from spring break, but please try to make it if you can. this could very well be the only time we have to figure out placement for rhumba/short drum and all work on the finale choreography (courtesy of martha this year) together.
and, just a reminder, solo critiques are required for all who plan to perform a solo, and time slots are on a first-come, first-serve basis! -Dori
