J.M.P - WWU Student Matinee Series January 12th 2018 Information
 
Hello everyone!
                Below should be all the details you need to help you with the show (except show order).  If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
 
Details:

♫ Call time: 8:15 stage manager/lighting designer.  Everyone else there at 8:30 These decisions are not always up to me that’s how the industry works, and we just nod our heads ok.  Sometimes call times change so even if you’re given information before or not this is a normal thing especially if the stage manager is short staffed which I found out today.  
The performance is at Western Washington University (WWU) PAC Main stage. 516 High St, Bellingham, WA 98225

♫ This is my 6th year for this show and up until now our last show it’s based on Tap Dance and Jazz Music.  It has also been the most popular show in the Education Series, with the largest turnout, and the most asked for show to return every year!

♫ There are several reasons why I have I have invited you to come.  The main one is to help inspire other kids your age with your talents, passion, drive, and love for dance.  You are basically inspiration for your peers on this day so gear up!   You are the image of what kids may inspire to do after watching you.  Many haven’t seen dance like this before and many started dancing because of this very show!  Our very own Kirsten Nielsen was once one of those kids!

♫ It’s for 4-8 graders although there will be some university students, professors, and more watching!

♫ The actual show is from 10:15 – 11:15. You can leave after we are done or have a look around the campus!  Usually I have a special interactive lesson with live musicians after the show but there are no musicians this time.  I am still trying to get the stage manager to do a lecture with you but after talking to him, I’m pretty sure he won’t have time so not going to bother.

♫ At the end there is usually a Q&A session so be ready to answer questions out loud on a mic!

Other Information
 
♫ Please make a check list of the things you need to bring and actually check them off as you pack them.  There are usually fruits, pastries, and water there for the dancers or some type of snack.  This hasn’t been confirmed yet, but I should know soon.  

Parking:
I should have around 11 parking passes which should be more than enough for the group accounting for.  The passes are generally good for either lot 11G or 14G.  They are trying to figure out parking for us to make sure everyone gets accommodated!  Show up to the PAC when you get here and we’ll hand them out.  DO NOT PARK ANYWHERE WITHOUT PAYING OR A PASS!  THE PARKING POLICE ARE EXTREAMELY GENEROUS WITH GIVING TICKETS!  If you get a ticket I cannot reimburse you! I will have information on parking by as we get closer to the show.

If you have invited other people there is paid parking on N. Garden Street behind the Viking Union (VU) building and another one kiddy-corner to the PAC.  These are the closest lots so I suggest you ask them try to park in that lot first unless you can magically find street parking that you don’t have to search for.  Another option is to stop by the Visitor’s Center in the Parking Services Building where you can get a permit.  When purchasing your permit please notify the parking employee that you are attending a performance in the PAC and they will place you in the closest available parking lot.  

WWU PARKING LINKS:
Below are two links to assist you with parking. One is for directions on how to get to the Parking.  Services Building and the other is a map of campus that shows the parking lots and the buildings.  Remember your passes are for lots 11G and 14G.
