Strike, Videos and Cast Party

Welcome to blog post 50: The Finale

It's been a great few months, but our time together is now almost nearly kind of officially over. :(

Alright enough sentimental stuff. I have three orders of business: Strike, DVDs of the play and the cast party

First, just as a reminder, Strike will be 3:30 - 6:00 Monday and 3:30 until we finish on Tuesday. This is again because there are events Wednesday and Thursday so we need to be done by Tuesday.

Second, we filmed the show last Saturday so if you're interested in getting your very own Metamorphoses DVD, please give Jim $10. If you want to use a check, make it out to "Friends of Lincoln: Drama". The Midas/Daughter moment will be edited in so that we have everything.

It did cost money to film, so we hope to be able to make that back from DVD sales.

Last order of business:

And I quote,

"Hello parents, cast, and crew!

The "unofficial" (as in not LHS sanctioned) cast party will be at our house: 5 SE 69th AVE, Portland, OR, 97215 (links to Google Maps - we are on the SE side). 

Here's the essentials:

• It is an all-night party to celebrate Metamorphoses.
• No requirement to stay all night - but please send us a note or text if your student can leave on their own with your permission after midnight and before 7am.
• Please pick-up by 8:30am.
• Bring a sleeping bag and pillow if you plan on sleeping. A toothbrush if you plan on brushing.
• Hollie or Scott (the parentals) will provide responsible supervision.
• We will have snacks (see below for items you could help contribute if wanted).
• No drugs or alcohol
• Hollie's cell is 503-201-1062. Scott's cell is 503-201-0691. Kris (the student) is at 503-922-1724. Please feel free to call or text as needed.

We will provide snacks, drinks, and breakfast foods. That said, if you want to contribute here's a list. Please send back a quick email or text to share your thinking and we can send a quick note back to confirm (just in case multiple folks all want to buy a case of the Seagram's Ginger Ale which we've learned is a vital part of this ritual!). Here goes:

• Seagram's Ginger Ale
• Chips/popcorn/snacks
• Bagels
• Any other drinks
• Anything you get particularly inspired to share (Halloween related inspiration is welcomed)

We don't have any pets so allergies should not be an issue. 

-Kris, Scott, and Hollie Nine"

That's all folks. Hope it's been a great metamorphoses for everyone.
