------------------------------------------------------------

To the WATCH Board, Judges, and Alternates:

Please note: “The Fantasticks” at Kensington Arts Theatre has been cancelled.  So despite what last week’s report said, if you were assigned to this show, you will not be judging it (obviously, since there is nothing to judge).

*****************************************

NOTE:  Balloting for a show closes 30 days after the show closes.  If you owe us a ballot, please get it in as soon as possible.

Friendly Reminders:

1.      DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL.  It’s very long, and the reply will include the entire thing, clogging my inbox.  Please send a new email to adjudication@washingtontheater.org

2.      DO email me your reservation dates.  Really, I want to know!

3.      DO search this entire report for your name, including in the “Closed” section to see if you owe any ballots.

4.      If you go see a show that you were not assigned to see, please let me know in case we need an alternate.  Try to keep the playbills for all shows you see at WATCH company theaters, at least until you see that it has closed with all ballots received.  Similarly, if you see a note that an alternate is needed and you are available to see that show, please let me know.
