Sunday mornings in December ~ Pageant Prep Begins
9:30 ~ Full Youth and Children’s Formation Rehearsal - we step into the story as a whole youth community, all students will be enabled to participate to their comfort level. Early childcare will be provided per usual. Cherubs will go to Sunday school for enrichment time to break up pageant work.
11-11:30 ~ Cherub Pageant Music (Animals and Angels)
11:30-12:15 ~ Junior Pageant Music (All named roles, choral and solo parts)
A note about Cherub & Junior Pageant Music Rehearsals after Church: We will use our normally scheduled time to rehearse and polish the musical numbers, making time for all the named roles and soloists to practice their parts, as well as learning choral parts! This is meant to pair with the earlier morning rehearsal which will focus on putting the spoken parts and blocking of the pageant together.
