Rehearsal Schedule Mia
Please Note
• You may print this page if you wish.
• If updates are made to this schedule, you will be notified via voice message, the change will initially appear on the top of the Backstage page and the changes will appear in red on this schedule. Currently, notes of interest appear in red.
• Song titles appear in italic type. Required cast appears in (parenthesis).
• “AIS2” means Act One, Scene Two; “AIIS3” means Act Two, Scene Three, and so on.
• We will be “dark” – meaning no rehearsal – on most Fridays. This means Muse performers have most Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights free!
• “Tutti” means the entire cast.
• When a specific character is listed, both the principal and understudy actors for that role attend rehearsal.
• “Rehearsal” means a complete run-through of the show.
• For speaking characters, the second time any scene appears on the schedule, you should be essentially off-book (memorized) for that scene.
