SUMMERTIME FAQS

 
 

what’s the rehearsal schedule like?

We aim to schedule rehearsals that work with various schedules and, likewise, optimize the ability to put on an excellent show! We will run rehearsals weekly on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. You may not be needed at all rehearsals- your rehearsal schedule will be related to your given role; ie- all cast is not required at all rehearsals unless we’re speaking to final dress and/or tech rehearsals.

I have a vacation planned, can I still audition?

Yes, please! We welcome versatile schedules and encourage you to still audition. Please understand that availability for rehearsals is taken into consideration when assigning roles.

  • It's a joy to celebrate Adelaide Lovelady entering her 3rd year directing Summertime House all the while marking her 12th year in the arts. Originally from Georgia and now residing in South Carolina, she has immersed herself in diverse theatre experiences, portraying characters such as Gertrude McFuzz in Seussical and featured ensemble roles in Daniel and the Kings. With a background in both learning and community theatre, Adelaide strives to provide participants with skills for their future roles in life, ensuring each one departs enriched from the experience.

  • When not working with House during the school year, Rachel Balakrishnan returns for her third year to Summertime by pouring her time and invaluable talents into the music direction. We love how she leads!

  • We are thrilled to welcome back the incredible Cheyenne Beets to lead the choreography for Little House on the Prairie! Returning to House for her third year, Cheyenne's boundless creativity and versatility bring a vibrant energy to the stage that we can't wait to witness this year.

  • Chloe Lovelady is a prime example of God qualifying those He calls. With a background in biology, her passion is in practically all things creative. When she was “volun-told” by Adelaide, her sister, to be a part of Summertime House, Chloe was (and remains) grateful that God placed her into such an uplifting and talented community!

will there be any weekend rehearsals?

We do aim to incorporate 2 and up to 4 Saturday rehearsals to put those finishing touches on the show! These rehearsals are necessary to pair together elements of tech, complex choreography, set design, costumes, and hair/makeup.
