Hello! Welcome to the cast and crew of Prairie Fire Children’s Theatre’s original musical adaptation of “Beauty and the Beast.” We are happy to be in your community and look forward to a fantastic show this weekend.

*****PLEASE REMEMBER YOUR SCRIPTS*****
PRAIRIE FIRE THEATRE PROVIDES ALL COSTUMES, but ALL CAST MEMBERS will need to bring a pair of shorts and a t-shirt of a neutral color for UNDERNEATH their costume. Bring those items, and anything else for your costume, in a large paper grocery bag with your name and character name on it. Please make sure that your snack is in a separate container!
HAIR: Everyone will need to bring anything they need for their hair. Specifics on hairstyles will be discussed throughout the week. SHOES: Any shoes with a back will work. Please stay away from flip flops or any shoes without backs, and tennis shoes with blinking lights if possible. Slip-ons work the best and ballet or jazz shoes work well too. PLEASE DO NOT FEEL YOU NEED TO RUN OUT AND BUY ANYTHING.
During the performances, NO FLASH PHOTOS PLEASE. VIDEOTAPING is allowed if not used for commercial purposes and Prairie Fire receives a copy at the address listed on the letterhead. If you do decide to videotape, we ask that you talk to the directors about where to set up to insure that entrances are not blocked.
Some cast members will be asked to help with costume check-in after the final show. Please let us know if that is not possible in advance.
SOUVENIER T-SHIRTS ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE WEEK AND ON PERFORMANCE DAYS. The cost is $16.00 each. CASH ONLY PLEASE!
If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for your cooperation and have a wonderful week!
Your Fearless Leaders,
