Summer Stock: Plot Synopsis

Time Period: Mid-20th Century Place: A Technicolor New England farm-turned-theater

ACT 1

Overture: Watch For: Offstage voices, live music

SCENE 1: The Barn at Falbury Farm Jane is sweeping straw while singing. Pop enters, comparing Jane's singing ability to her late mother's. Pop lets Jane know that they have lost their last two farmhands to Margaret Wingate. Margaret has taken over most of the farmland in town except for Falbury Farm. Pop and Jane wonder where they're going to find help to bring in the harvest. Celestial voices join Jane in song. Song: "Get Happy" Watch For: Animal noises

SCENE 2: Metro Rehearsal Studio There's a spotlight on Joe Ross' feet as he is tap dancing. Joe, the director, is running the rehearsal. Singing words of encouragement. Jane's sister, Gloria Falbury, is running late to the rehearsal. The writer of the show, Phil Filmore, is not happy with Gloria becoming the new replacement performer of the show. Joe insists Gloria is a good performer. The rehearsal was supposed to end at 5:00 pm and it is now 5:05 pm. They get kicked out of the rehearsal studio and don't have any money to pay for more rehearsal time. Phil and Joe are worried their show will never make it to "The Great White Way," also known as Broadway, because they don't have a place to rehearse. Gloria tells them that she has a place that they can rehearse and it won't cost any money. Phil and Joe are excited and sing with the ensemble. Song: "Happy Days are Here Again/I Want to Be Happy" Watch For: Tap dancing

SCENE 3: The Yard, the next day We are in the barnyard and the theatre troupe comes in singing with various props, sets, and costume racks. Gloria surprises her father and sister by bringing the whole troupe of performers to the farm where they are planning on rehearsing and performing their show that is a work in progress. Gloria introduces Pop and Jane to Joe, Phil, and the rest of the ensemble. Jane is not so easily convinced that this is a good idea. She has a farm to save and doesn't have time for the nonsense of show business. This troupe is delaying Jane for an important meeting. So, she reluctantly agrees to let them stay for one night. Song: "Accentuate the Positive" Watch For: Cow mooing, shouting

SCENE 4: The Cherry Orchard Jane is walking up a path, still angry that the troupe of performers are on the family farm. She sings a song about "chasing rainbows." She always feels like she's chasing her dreams and they never come true. Joe ends up hearing Jane sing and he is impressed. He sings with her. He tells her that she's just not "chasing after rainbows," she's accomplishing things. Jane agrees and says she will accomplish her dreams by herself. Jane hurries off, up the road. Song: "I'm Always Chasing Rainbows"

SCENE 5: The Drawing Room at Wingate Manor At Wingate Manor Mrs. Wingate and her son, Orville, are drinking tea. She is trying to convince Orville to propose to Jane. If Orville marries Jane, then the Wingate family will become the largest commercial farming operation in the Connecticut River Valley by also owning the failing Falbury Farm. Mrs. Wingate and Orville sing a song in preparation for the marriage proposal. Jane and a maid enter and see Orville bent down on one knee as if he were proposing to his own mother. Mrs. Wingate continues to encourage Orville to propose to Jane. When Jane finally hears Orville's marriage proposal, she refuses and insists on saving the farm herself. Song: "Always" & "Always (Reprise)" Watch For: Shouting

SCENE 6: The Barn Back at the farm the cast is sitting on hay bales, strumming a ukulele, reading the trades, and writing home. They are thinking about heading back to the city to audition for another show. However, Joe tries to convince them to stay. He sings a song and in doing so he stalls them, long enough to hear the last train of the night leave without them.

In the kitchen Pop is preparing food and Gloria enters. Gloria has become a true city slicker and Pop loves his farm country roots. They both defend their lifestyles and Jane comes back from her failed proposal. Song: "It's Only a Paper Moon" Watch For: Train whistle

SCENE 7: The Kitchen, a short time later Pop pits cherries as Gloria enters, sits, and helps herself. Pop is planning on using all of the cherries they've grown. They sing a song about how Pop thinks the best things in life are free and Gloria sings that some of the best things in life cost money. Jane enters and warns Gloria about Joe. The cast comes in to eat dinner and Jane approaches Joe to request that his performers help with farm work in exchange to use their farm as a performance venue. Joe agrees and they all sing a song about how they will work for their food. Song: "The Best Things in Life are Free" & "Dig For Your Dinner" Watch For: Yelling, triangle ringing, jumping on table, tap dancing, silverware banging

SCENE 8: Jane's Bedroom, that evening When Jane is sleeping, her sister Gloria comes into her room, because the barn wasn't a very comfortable place to sleep. The two have realized that they have become two very different people that used to be so close when they were children. They listen to an old record of them singing as children. Song: "Me and My Shadow"

SCENE 9: The Yard, the next morning Exhausted, the performers all start on the farm work begrudgingly. Joe encourages them to work hard so they can continue using the farm as a performance venue. Mrs. Wingate arrives at the house to speak with Pop. She sees the performers working on the farm and disapproves. Phil says he needs to still work on the song for when their leading man arrives on the farm. Gloria suggests a kiss would make a good transition out of the song. Gloria pulls Joe into a kiss. Phil unfolds a vocal chart and Orville runs in clutching a rolled land-map. They don't see each other and collide. Orville is looking for his mother and Phil explains he's working on music for the star of the show. Just then, Montgomery Leach, the star of the show, arrives and Mrs. Wingate is smitten with him. She insists that Montgomery stays at her home, Wingate Manor, instead of Falbury Farm. Montgomery goes with her and everyone else goes back to work. Song: "Howdy Neighbor, Happy Harvest" Watch For: Animal noises, shouting, Phil and Orville collide

SCENE 10: The Drawing Room at Wingate Manor, that night Montgomery Leach and Mrs. Wingate make a toast. Montgomery sings a song that flatters Mrs. Wingate and they dance together. Song: "Red Hot Mamma"

SCENE 11: The Barn, the next day During rehearsal, Gloria and Montgomery are singing together poorly and not getting along. Pop says the song they're singing was his and his late wife's favorite song and Gloria and Montgomery are ruining it. Phil is not happy with the lack of chemistry between the two leads. Phil insists on singing it the right way with Orville joining him for the duet. Together the two men execute the love song beautifully. Montgomery is not happy with being embarrassed and says he will leave the show. Joe takes Montgomery's place for the rest of rehearsal. Gloria goes to kiss Joe and Jane stops the kiss by clanging a cowbell and announcing supper. Before they eat Jane asks Joe his intentions with Gloria and it turns into a song where Jane and Joe almost kiss and Gloria catches them. Gloria runs off crying. Song: "'Til We Meet Again" & "You Wonderful You" Watch For: Actors in the aisle, yelling, clang of a cowbell

ACT 2

SCENE 1: The Front Porch, twilight A performer is writing a letter home and all of the performers are concerned about the drama that has ensued so far. Pop enters and offers cherry desserts. But, the cast declines. The ensemble is worried and Pop sings a song about just enjoying the night. Off-stage we hear Jane and Gloria fighting. Song: "June Night" Watch For: Animal noises, acrobatic dancing, cymbal crashing, yelling

SCENE 2A: Jane's Bedroom, Continuous Gloria starts packing her suitcase and yells at Jane to leave her alone, because Gloria had feelings for Joe and her sister almost kissed him. Gloria grabs their mother's record and Jane and Gloria fight over it. Ultimately snapping the disc. Gloria sings a song about how her sister, Jane, will miss her. Gloria grabs her suitcase and leaves. Song: "Some of These Days" Watch For: Yelling, record breaks

SCENE 2B: The Drawing Room of Wingate Manor, Same Time Montgomery Leach is writing a note to Mrs. Wingate about how he'll miss her. Mrs. Wingate cries out in disappointment once she reads Montgomery's letter. Song: "Some of These Days" Watch For: Train whistle, yelling

SCENE 2C: The Barn, Continuous Jane goes after Joe with half of a broken record. She says her sister is leaving, because of him. It's over and Jane sings about how she won't miss Joe and that she doesn't need him. Jane leaves Joe and Joe begins to dance alone. He picks up a crumpled newspaper, reads it, and saunters off. He turns back at the sound of a cricket chirping. Song: "Some of These Days" & "Joe's Dance" Watch For: Yelling, kicking, tap dancing, cricket noise

SCENE 3: The Kitchen, that night Jane is at the kitchen window. She stands at the sink, miserable, washing dishes, singing about "chasing rainbows." Pop knows something is bothering her and Jane explains that she thinks they have to sell the farm. Joe appears and says maybe they don't have to sell. He shows them a fundraiser he found in the newspaper and suggests they host a fundraiser of their own. Gloria is back and standing in the doorway. Gloria says that she could get this show into shape as a producer. But, she wants to be back to the city on the first train in the morning. Jane sings a song, insisting Gloria stays and helps them produce the show. Song: "I'm Always Chasing Rainbows (Reprise)" & "It All Depends On You"

SCENE 4: The Drawing Room at Wingate Manor, the next day Mrs. Wingate is singing to Montgomery Leach's signed photo while Orville watches on. Phil is introduced by the maid and enters looking for his vocal chart. Jane and Joe must step into Gloria and Montgomery's roles and some parts must be rewritten to fit their voices. Phil notices that Orville has made some changes to the score and is impressed. Phil convinces Orville to come help him work on the show. Song: "Always (Reprise)" Watch For: Doorbell

SCENE 5: The Barn The performers are rehearsing for their show. They're figuring out their costumes. Jane is running her lines and having difficulty with the choreography. Gloria wants the sky to be painted pinker for the show. The assistant choreographer wants to change the choreography to something easier and the associate director doesn't want it to change. They play "Rock, Paper, Scissors" and the assistant choreographer wins and starts teaching everyone the new dance through a song. Joe enters and is confused, because they're changing the choreography. Phil and Orville are going over the music and they sing a song about being lucky. Gloria loves the song and wants to add it to their show. Song: "Everybody Step" & "Lucky Day" Watch For: Cymbal crashing, horns, acrobatic dancing, clapping, shouting

SCENE 6: The Barn, the next morning Gloria was able to get people from the theater industry to come see the premiere of their show 'Til We Meet Again. Song: "Rehearsal Sequence - Farm Part 1" Watch For: Cheering

SCENE 7A: The Barn, a short time later Jane is rehearsing, Phil explains to Orville that a sitzprobe is when the cast sits and practices the vocals with the orchestra for the first time. To make matters worse, Mrs. Wingate enters with the mayor of the town. She makes the mayor tell them that the barn is not up to code to house all of these occupants and they must be gone in 48 hours. In that case the producer, Gloria, decides the show must start in 46 hours to comply with the mayor. Song: "How Ya Gonna Keep 'Em Down on the Farm"

SCENE 7B: The Barn, later The performers are in the middle of their technical rehearsal. Phil is teaching Orville what a technical rehearsal is and the GI's enter singing and dancing. Mrs. Wingate and the mayor return, again. The mayor says that legally they are not allowed to sell tickets to their performance.

SCENE 7C: The Barn, later still The performers are having their final dress rehearsal. Jane is singing and can-can dancers run on stage. Mrs. Wingate and the mayor enter for a third time to state "it is unlawful to gather in any public or private structure for the purpose of lewd or disorderly conduct." Mrs. Wingate hopes that discourages anyone from coming at all, because they'll be arrested if they do. Gloria says they'll perform to an empty house if they must. They continue to rehearse and are amazed at how much they have accomplished in a short time. They all go get some sleep. Song: "Rehearsal Sequence" Watch For: Cymbal crashes, actors in the aisles

SCENE 8: The front porch, early in the morning A ghost light glows. Joe, Phil, Orville, Gloria, and Jane are on hay bales finishing up a production meeting. Pop encourages everyone to get some rest with the help of some cherry tonic. The sunrise is just the color of pink that Gloria wants for her set. Jane and Joe linger behind and Joe gives Jane his first coin that he ever made in showbusiness. He confesses that he has feelings for Jane. They lean in, are interrupted by Pop's voice, and Joe kisses her hand. Jane watches Joe whistle as he leaves and now alone she sings about how she has feelings for Joe, as well. Song: "It Had to Be You"

SCENE 9A: Backstage in The Barn, Opening Night The show curtain hangs in reverse across the upstage wall. Ensemble members peek through it, looking out at the audience. They don't see any sign of Mrs. Wingate. Their show starts. Song: "Opening Night Overture / Happy" Watch For: Tap dancing

SCENE 9C: Backstage / Onstage / Continuous Joe and Jane sing their duet. Phil watches from the wings wishing that Orville could hear his music. Orville surprises him and appears. He was keeping his mother busy from attending this performance. But, she disappeared from the house and came to ruin the show. Mrs. Wingate threatens to yell "FIRE!" Montgomery comes in reciting Shakespeare. That distracts Mrs. Wingate enough to swoon over Montgomery and not ruin the show. The cast continues to sing and dance. Song: "You Wonderful You (Duet)" & "Opening Night Cont'd Step / Hinky" Watch For: Yelling "FIRE!"

SCENE 9D: Jane's Make-Shift Dressing Room, Continuous Jane is dressed in a black gown. Joe slips heels on her feet. Jane tells them to wish her luck. Gloria does wish her luck. But, in the theater it is bad luck to wish "good luck." What could go wrong? RIP! Jane's dress gets caught on Gloria's foot and rips the dress. Jane is in her undergarments. Gloria covers Jane with a tuxedo jacket. Joe throws a fedora on Jane's head and tilts it over her eyes. Jane is nervous. But, Joe encourages her. Watch For: Ripping sound and ripped dress

SCENE 10: Onstage, Continuous The stage picture has flipped and there is a vivid pink sky that spans the back of the stage. The band vamps as the ensemble all in tuxes stand frozen in tableau—hiding Jane from view. The ensemble reveals Jane. She is nervous, but then summons some courage and sings. Song: "Get Happy (Reprise)" Watch For: Horns and acrobatic dancing

SCENE 11: Backstage, Continuous Jane runs into Joe's arms and she is proud. The audience loved the show. Gloria says that all the people from New York want their bosses to come see the show. Montgomery and Mrs. Wingate remark how the food was wonderful and unique to serve farm-fresh cuisine at a theater. They're all excited to write more shows, perform, and feed more audiences on the farm. They call dinner and a show SUMMER STOCK. At the end of the song Joe and Jane are hidden by the fedora. The fedora falls and reveals the two kissing. Song: "You Wonderful You (Finale)"

Trended today- Roberta Flack 70s back to back Grammys Award ROTY (twitter.)com/1HillbillyWilly/status/1629003732775243777?s=20 (youtu.)be/kgl-VRdXr7I (youtu.)be/d8_fLu2yrP4 I wonder if their will be cameos of icons in Daisy & The Six? Fashion styles re-trending? Political, environmental & social issues from that era are still relevant & relatable right now- the response to that show will be interesting.

Critical reputation: Flack's minimalist, classically trained approach to her songs was seen by a number of critics as lacking in grit and uncharacteristic of soul music. According to music scholar Jason King, her work was regularly described with the adjectives "boring", "depressing", "lifeless", "studied", and "calculated"; in contrast, AllMusic's Steve Huey said it has been called "classy, urbane, reserved, smooth, and sophisticated". Wikipedia She made history despite the criticism or praise.

FOB mention- Flack's collaboration with Donny Hathaway is mentioned in the song "What A Catch, Donnie" on Fall Out Boy's fourth studio album, Folie à Deux. Wikipedia

🎵 MIIIIIIISS FLACK SAID: I STILL WANT YOU BACK. I GOT TROUBLED THOUGHTS AND THE SELF-ESTEEM TO MATCH 🎵 (such a me core lyric.) what a catch masterpiece, folie an album of all-time, so true.

both of those songs of roberta's are VERY famous, it's interesting to see those adjectives there, particularly note "calculated." hmmm.

i haven't read daisy jones yet, so i'm not sure if it references real musicians and icons of the time! the response will definitely be curious to see, it's SUCH an anticipated series this year.

regarding the fashion, i did love this little tidbit:

A subtle homage. Riley Keough plays a stylish 1970s rock star in Daisy Jones & the Six, so costume designer Denise Wingate knew she had to pay tribute to Keough’s grandfather, Elvis Presley.

“I met a woman, Love Melody, who designed clothes in the ’60s and made two jumpsuits for Elvis,” Wingate told E! News in an interview published on Monday, February 20.

The costumer, who previously worked on Cruel Intentions and She’s All That, reached out to Melody to create some pieces for 33-year-old Keough’s character, Daisy Jones.

“I had her make two beautiful long coats for Riley — one in a rust leather and another in patchwork denim. I felt it was important to bring something from that period,” Wingate explained. “And I think Riley was touched.”

#i just wish lisa marie was here to see it :(#i'm still very sad very often #anonymous #letterbox

The Artifice of Singing Off-Key in Hip-Hop/R&B Music Explained

Though art is subjective, we can seemingly identify a “bad” song instantly. A “bad” song; is mostly identified by its defiance to sonic conformities and cultural conformities amongst others. So, for the same reasons a Billy Joel fan may not appreciate Death Grips; a Metallica fan may very well dislike them too! They’re awfully different! Throughout the evolution of Hip-Hop and R&B music, there have been technological advancements that impacted the sonic landscape of the two genres. What remains constant through Hip-Hop transitioning to Rap; is the artist’s unique choice to sing.

The earliest form of an MC or Rap Artist like we know today; is identified as a Griot; a kind of bard or itinerant minstrel found in western African societies, who usually sings of local legends, histories, genealogies, or heroic deeds. (Oxford) Griot was later used to identify verbal messengers in American Slave Communities who’d indirectly and openly speak to their contemporaries in a chatter that their over-seer could not understand. That is why there is such emphasis on slang and rhythm in these genre’s today. (Dozier) The genre’s identity is founded on non-conformity. Auto-Tune: paved the way for rude and funny offkey rhymes sung by 80’s Hip-Hop legend Slick Rick the Ruler, to evolve to the candid lyrics that 2000’s Rap & R&B Legend, T-Pain, belts into the digital analog; vocal enhancer. Melodies are constant in music. However, Rap & R&B culture is infatuated with off-key singing. From Biz-Markie’s “He’s Just a Friend” to Lil Yachty’s “One Night;” we hear artists in this same space conjure unique singing-hooks with wild notes that do not theoretically conform to a classical musician’s standard for staying “on-key.” The trend is reasoned purely by artistic expression and the flowing river of new artistic-capabilities enabled by Auto-Tune amongst other vocal synthesizers and note-decoders.

Following the ground-breaking release of “808’s and Heartbreak” Kanye West admitted "I get a lot of backlash for using [Auto-Tune] because it's a tool people use when they can't sing... What it does for me, if I sing off-key, it really points that out. It points out the bad notes. So, what I have to do is sing more perfect.” Ben Rogerson insightfully explains that rather than a rap artist generically employing auto-tune solely for pitch correction, Ye used it as a clearly audible effect throughout the album. In a rap landscape which some artists might have hidden the fact that they implement it, Ye’s choice to double down on his use of vocal synthesizers shifted the sonic standards for the genre.

Auto-Tune turns rappers into singers or a unique combination of both. It enhances the musicality present in the rhythmically cadenced speech, and pushes rapping towards crooning and adlibbing, encouraging rappers to emit trills and melodic flourishes that would otherwise be outside their reach. The introductory song to Yachty’s fifth studio album: “Let’s Start Here,” titled ‘pRETTy,’ is characterized by the magical instrumentations that seemingly grant the listener euphoria, and the trippy chorus that is capitalized by auto-tune. (Banerjee) Future, another artist branded by his uniquely textured auto-tuned vocals “reinvented blues for the 21 century,” curating a style of delivery (somewhere between speech and singing) as a mode of feeling, and outlook. “My music—that’s pain,” Future has said. Paradoxically, Auto-Tune’s most flagrantly artificial effects have come to signify authenticity at its most raw and exposed. (Reynolds)

To further discuss the identifiable reason for rap artists to sing off-key or improper and present it as high-valued talent, we can look closely at the prolific Mixtape Rapper, Max B. Max, whose given name is Charley Wingate, was most musically active in the years, 2006-2008. From more than 20 mixtapes, one full-length on a small independent label and a substantial number of hooks and verses with New York City’s Dipset/ByrdGang crews; the body of work that Max B recorded vary wildly in tone and sound quality from release to release: referencing the stark contrast between the hallucinatory grime of the Coke Wave tapes with French Montana and the crisp G-funk of Vigilante Season. Lyrically, Max explores the depths of inebriation, crime and incarceration, misogyny, money as a means and a motivator, and these lyrics evoke an aggressive stance toward anyone with doubt in his status as the greatest gift to New York City, if not the world. (Cohen) Max B’s delivery exudes confidence, intentionality, and purpose all while singing off-key without the use of auto-tune.

In a recent interview with Complex led by Grant Rindner, Wingate states: “I Don’t Need Auto-Tune. My Voice Is Beautiful.” Max B, renowned as an influential figure whose melodic style predated the current wave of singing rap artists, explains his ear-catching delivery by admitting: “I’m not trying to sing, I’m just trying to be vulnerable... I’m trying to put my soul on there for you. I’m trying to give you me... I’m not getting respected for my musical gifts, so now I’ve got to do the unthinkable, and come with [something else].” (Rindner) Max B. Very early into his contract with Koch Records, Max told his contemporary Jim Jones, that they needed a new sound, one that moved away from the hard-hitting drums and choir samples and horns we’d typically hear in popular New York rap music at that time. Max referred to this sound being a soulful flavor that best resembles the musical roots of Harlem. Considering the cultural significance of the Harlem Renaissance, and the cultural significance of a Grigot and slave chatter in Hip-Hop and Rap music; rap artists who choose to sing off-key tap into a vulnerability and creative consciousness that is inspired by captivity, longing, non-conformity, and revolution.

Future hits it on the head when he describes his music to be simply “Pain.” T-Pain glamorously wears his moniker with the same notion in mind. Though there are many upbeat songs which feature rap artists singing; the creative consciousness inspired by slavery is inherent. Therefore, the artists vulnerability that off-key singing conveys, is most attributed to pain and suffering. It takes painful history from the genre’s lineage and sculpts it into modern chat toward people who feel painfully oppressed in their circumstances. Max B’s intentional vulnerability in his creativity comes from his own painful experiences as a child and the painful lessons that he struggled to learn in his adulthood: when he sings about being incarcerated, his adaptable keys for attaining success, and ways that he is persecuted from the Music Industry and the public. Max was trapped in a non-lucrative record deal, while facing criminal charges that loomed a 35-year sentence over his head and he directed his stress and his pain into his music and rapid productivity; amassing a cult following that awaits his eventual release this coming Autumn. This artist-model or artistic approach works with any rap artist who is confident enough to make the great, powerful choice to be vulnerable and sing honestly instead of correctly and uniformly.

Did you ever get off your lazy ass and read a shojo manga or do you still think women should just put up with hanging around so they can get married off to the heroes at the end?

For your information, I already read/play/watch media in which there are competent female characters. If we're going by anime and manga alone, I can name series like Hellsing (Sir Integra Wingates Hellsing and Seras Victoria), Cowboy Bebop (Faye Valentine), Ghost in the Shell (Major Motoko Kusanagi), and pretty much most of Studio Ghibli's catalogue.

And if we're going by video games, then I can mention pretty much every fighting game series ever (speaking as an avid fan of the genre).

How about you get off your lazy ass and diversify your tastes? (And hit the gym as well.)

It’s Fine Press Friday!

This week we bring you The Bottom of the Harbor, by the The New Yorker writer Joseph Mitchell, with photos by by celebrated American photographer Berenice Abbott, printed by Wild Carrot Letterpress on a paper made at Cartiere Enrico Magnini, and published in 1991 by the Limited Editions Club in an edition of 250 copies signed by the author. The six stories that comprise the book were first published in the The New Yorker, and then first published as a collection by Little Brown in 1959. The collection has been recognized as Mitchell’s best and most “elegiac account of New York,” featuring his distinctive focus on the everyday underdog characters of New York City.

Berenice Abbott spent her career documenting New York City as it underwent massive changes, particularly in the 1920s and 30s when millions were immigrating to the United States through Ellis Island. Abbott’s and Mitchell’s works are complementary as they both focused on often overlooked places and people, emphasizing the importance and beauty of the small things.

The photographs are produced here in photogravure by American photogravure printmaker Jon Goodman. Photogravure allows a photographic image to be printed in intaglio. These images were produced using the original negatives taken by Abbott. The result is a rich velvety tonal image that is fully integrated into the paper though the extreme pressure used in the printing process.

Goodman’s photogravure plates were printed by Sara Krohn and Wingate Studio on handmade paper. The text was set by Michael and Winifred Bixler in Monotype Bell. Our copy is a gift from our friends Megan Holbrook and Eric Vogel.

and some looks at some Documents:

introducing "get happy" as the song jane is diegetically singing at the start of the show....seeming enough confirmation that "pop" falbury takes the place of the grand/parently housekeeper of the film, who mentions in some overlapped dialogue that an aunt was a performer who used to teach the falbury sisters singing & dancing....now presumably a literal grand/parent, who may be attributing their preexisting performance skills, despite having lived on a farm, as from "[like?] your mama"....maybe an "I always [...] song coming [on]" there too

the binder on the table is open to a cast list ft. headshots & a summer stock title/cover sheet, and my efforts at transcribing the pages of the binder on the podium are as follows

left sheet:

6.25 Donna

Music ... We would like to add drums on the 3rd count of 8 on Corbin's NY solo - HAPPY DAYS/I WANT TO BE....

Sound ... We will figure out the timing of the raking SFX at top of show ... pg 1

Music ... We need to update music that there are no words "Shall we? Let's" - GET HAPPY OPENING ... pg 1

Dani ... Need to have eyes up on "We're going to the promised land" GET HAPPY OPENING ... pg 1

Sound ... Creaky door opening SFX sounds like a metal door- we don't like it ... pg 1

Dani ... There is no "That". On the line "We promised THAT we'd make them whole" ... pg 2

Music ... Needs to come in right away after Corbin's last step. Before "easy peasy, kids" HAPPY DAYS/I WANT... ... pg 3

Writer/Feore ... We need to look at "Ow, geez louise". She just needs one "ow" ... pg 4

Ensemble ... Female ensemble should be looking at [?] during "We don't got time" - HAPPY DAYS/I WANT TO BE HAPPY ... pg 4

Music ... Too much time before Gloria's "Say! I've got a place!" - HAPPY DAYS/I WANT TO BE HAPPY ... pg 6

Music/Ensemble ... Need to clean up the sigh in HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN ... pg 8

Arianna ... Do not go to grab Joe's hand when you introduce Joe to pop. (Hangover) ... pg 8

Arianna ... It works when Ari stands between Joe and Phil for "And we all won". Yes to that! ... pg 10

Ari, Corbin, Gil, Dani ... We need to fix the weave, escape blocking in ACCENTUATE THE POSITIVE. The running out doesn't work ... pg 13

Ensemble/Jane ... Go over exit cues. "You can all bunk out in the barn tonight". Start to leave. "But" stop. "heave ho" leave ... pg 14

Stage Management ... Is the suitcase structural for her to stand on? ... pg 14

Ari, Corbin, Gil, Dani ... The figure 8 has to be that every time she tries to leave, someone is there - ACCENTUATE THE POSITIVE ... pg 13

Dani ... We need her to play just a little stage left in CHASING RAINBOWS ... pg 15

Dani ... Needs to respond to Joe saying "subtext". Need to say something ... pg 16
