Cast List Announced!

Congratulations to everyone who auditioned for Triad's production of "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown"

The level of difficulty for this audition was greater than that of a standard play. We were impressed with your preparation and amount of individual time you all put into your audition. Our decisions were made after great deliberation (and arguments) regarding your spoken, as well as your musical auditions. Once again, you have made this casting a difficult one with all of your amazing auditions. Please note that there were only 6 spots available in this musical and while we would have liked to utilize more talent, the book does not permit that. If you did not get a main role, please know that you can still be a part of this musical by being a member of the chorus. Chorus members are not required to be at rehearsals until otherwise noted by Stanforth and Waibel.

Due to the timeline we are working with, we need to have our first read through after school tomorrow, Friday, January 14th starting at 2:45pm on the stage. Please make every effort to attend the read through.

Once again, thank you for your auditions! Here's the cast list

Charlie Brown - Kaitlyn Salyers

Sally Brown - Lindsey Salyer

Linus Van Pelt - Chad Reisinger

Lucy Van Pelt - Ruth Holland

Schroeder - Aaron Greve

Snoopy - Boston Gregg

Update on the play

As of this post, we are looking at having only 11 more practices until our week of dress rehearsals begins. Here are a few things to keep in mind.


1. Memorize those lines folks! We are wanting to do our first practices without scripts starting in November.

2. While I can appreciate those of you involved in so many different activities, it is of high importance that we start to make play practice our number 1 priority. With one person not being there, it can completely throw off timing and blocking significantly. So while you may think you know everything you are doing, the people around you are counting on your deliverance of lines and standing where you should be standing.

3. Stage crew has been going extremely well. For those that haven't had an opportunity to show up and help, please look at the remaining schedule and try to attend at least one crew meeting. The set is large this year and we need all hands on deck to help support the building and designing of these set pieces  :)

4. Costumes. Some of you have been picking up costume pieces for approval. Remember, the majority of costuming is your responsibility. There are a few that will be rented, but if you are a munchkin, poppy or tree, you need to dress accordingly. Please remember, no clothing with any type of logo on it.

5. Keep up the awesome work! As we continuously produce quality plays, we are building our audience which will in turn build our program! Pass the word around to you family, friends and enemies about this play. It's gonna be a fun one!

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Cast List Announced

There were many wonderful auditions from the past week, often for the same parts. Mr. Waibel, Mr. Stanforth and Ms. Smart enjoyed sitting in and listening to your auditions. After all of the auditions were completed, there was much discussion and deliberation regarding who should go in what role. This was by far the most difficult casting we have ever had to do as a team because there were so many great auditions and only a limited number of roles. Please keep in mind that if you did not get the part you auditioned for, that this should not deter you from auditioning in the future.

If you got an understudy role, it would be best if you could show up for all rehearsals for that character in case the actor/actress is sick or unable to attend. Some of you will be double cast for the roles of munchkin, flying monkey, poppy, and fighting tree. If you are not listed as a tree, poppy etc. and would like to help fill out the stage, that would be great, tell us at a rehearsal
