Hi everyone!
We are so excited to do this awesome musical at Southland for the second time! Our last performance of Dig It! was six years ago. You may notice many of the posts in this blog are dated back in 2012, and that is why.
The main purpose of this blog is to communicate the costume requirements for the many different characters. This musical has a LOT of different characters, which makes it super fun for the kids and a great show to watch as well. We need a lot of help from you, our parents, with the costumes. You will not have to do any elaborate sewing, we have tried to keep things as simple as possible.
To figure out what your specific child needs for his/her costume - see the labels to the right and find their character. Click on it to see all of the posts related to that character's costume and instructions. And keep in mind that we would really appreciate donations of costumes after the show since we cycle through these fun school musicals and hope to do another in six more years.
PLEASE HAVE COSTUMES READY TO BE CHECKED OFF BY JANUARY 15TH
We do have a few costumes that we need extra help with. PLEASE consider helping if you can - the needs we have right now are help cutting skeleton bones (and possibly stitching over the top to keep them from peeling off) and we will need help designing a simple flowy "dress" for our Greek Choristers. Last time it was VERY simple - no sleeves - just a flowy material the girls wore over white shirts and leggings with a belt.
If you have leftover white and/or black face paint we would love to use it for our skeletons. We will need a lot of it to paint all 10 skeletons for three performances.
You may e-mail me at jen.t.preece@gmail.com with any questions or if you find anything I need to update or edit on this blog.
Thanks so much - we are enjoying working with your children and hope this will be a wonderful and memorable experience for them! We have musical "kids" who are now seniors in high school and come to us remembering the songs and how much fun they had doing this show. We think you will be amazed at what a fun and fabulous musical this is! Please help support us to make it even more amazing!! We would love as much help as we can get - especially with our costumes.
