Oklahoma Cast Party - actually a celebration for cast, pit, crew and
front of house kids...
Saturday, March 17, 2001 8:00 PM (or after the faculty show if
you're going) until 10:00 AM Sunday (optional)
at the home of Tom Wilson and Fran Grigsby, parents of John Wilson
199 Independence Road, Concord (Up the hill behind Louisa May's)
phone : 369-1765
Parents are welcome to visit (briefly!) to mingle with other parents in
the living room (the kids take over the rest of the house), to look at
photos of the show and place orders for photos, videos, audio CD's and
headshots, if desired.
ALL attendees are strongly urged to car pool. Because of the snow
situation, parking along Independence is at a premium. Please drop-off
students when possible. Parking is allowed at the lot at Orchard House,
but it's a stiff walk up the hill! Students driving their own cars
are requested to bring as many other students as possible.
Bonus this year - all food and drink will be provided at no charge to
the kids! Because so many families generously donated food and drink to
the "Feed the Kids" program during rehearsals, we have a surplus of
drinks and paper goods and enough money left to buy evening snacks and
morning donuts and juice for the party. Thanks to everyone for such
amazing support of these great kids.
For Freshmen and New families... you've heard by now that this is an
overnight party and you're trying hard to be calm. Calm is good.
Advice from the old-timers: Yes, it is an overnight party, but about
half of the 100+ kids who attend will be picked-up, some as early as
11:00 PM and some as late as 2:00 AM. Contrary to what your child is
telling you, he/she will NOT be the only one to go home if that is your
choice. If your child does stay overnight, there will be vigilant
adult chaperoning through the night. There also are so many kids in the
house that none of them ever gets to be alone! House rules strictly
forbid ANY alcohol or controlled substances. If a child smokes
cigarettes (which is between you and your child) they may do so only
outside the house.
The best news for new families is that your child has now aligned
him/herself with a truly amazing group of kids who have made a
commitment to enjoy themselves without benefit of controlled
substances. They truly care for and about each other and their
strongest desire is to have lots of uninterrupted time together and to
celebrate their hard work and huge success. Count your blessings and
welcome aboard.
If you have any questions before the party or need to touch base during
the event, feel free to call Tom and Fran
at 369-1765.
