Week Commencing 18 September

 This is the last regular Blog.  During the week of the Show we will only use it for urgent messages.

Rosemary has circulated wardrobe info to you.  If you are missing anything you must tell her NOW !  It will be too late when we reach the theatre.

You should have received a lot of info about the Show and the theatre over the last few weeks.  If you are unsure about anything please email Scott Park as soon as possible.  He will not be easily available from next Sunday morning.  Don't forget that your costumes should be brought to the theatre on Sunday between 4pm and 5pm.  If you really can't manage on Sunday then bring it on Monday.   There is no rehearsal on Sunday!

Activity Day Sat 16 Sept at Invertrossachs Activity Centre

Arrive at 10am and pick up between 4pm and 4.30pm

Everyone should bring a towel and a change of clothing as you will probably get wet on the water.  We're not sure what the weather will be like but would advise waterproofs or other suitable clothing and footwear.   Lunch will be provided but if you want a snack you'll have to provide it as there is no Tuck Shop.

Getting there: The site is reached from Callander town centre by taking the A81 Glasgow road then, at a mini-roundabout, bearing right on a minor road signposted Invertrossachs. The road beyond the junction at Gartchonzie Bridge is a single track ‘No Through Road’, and is public as far as the estate lodge gates. There is a barrier here which is padlocked. The code to open this is 1900. Please ensure it is locked again behind you after passing through. If it is open, please drive through but stop and lock it after you.

Proceed along the private road carefully for approximately 2 km. This section of road is normally very busy with walkers and cyclists, so please observe the 20 m.p.h. speed limit.

The exact location is pinpointed here on google maps. The PostCode FK17 8HG for SatNav identifies the cottages of the tiny village of Invertrossachs which is another 2km along the loch-side road.

 We are very pleased to announce that Saturday's Bucket collection raised £800 for our funds after making a donation to Morrison's chosen charity.  Thank you to all our members who helped and to Morrison's Supermarket.

Our Box Office has now closed with unsold tickets returned to the theatre for sale.  The Macrobert still has tickets on sale for each night.  These can be bought by telephoning 01786 466666 or online at www.macrobertartscentre.org

Yesterday's revision demonstrated that cast members need to go over the Gang videos and practice their moves for each of the Production numbers that they are in.
