** WATCH
Weekly Report 04-01-20 **
------------------------------------------------------------
To the WATCH Board, Judges, and Alternates:
I have been reminded that today is April Fool’s Day, so I
wanted reassure everyone that none of the below is an April Fool’s joke. Frankly, I wish it were. But the world is a surreal enough place right
now without calling anything else into question.
I am still waiting to hear from a number of people who were
assigned to see a show that closed early.
Please, please, please check
the closed section below and if you see your name without a “MISSED” notation
next to it, let me know if you saw it or not.
We cannot close ballots for these shows until we know how many we can
expect. Reps, please feel free to reach
out to your judges as well about this.
Since there are no shows running or opening soon, I have
decided to remove these sections of the report for the time being. I look forward to the day when they return.
Theater schedules have continued to change. Below is a running list of changes, with the
latest additions/changes bolded for easy identification:

More reminders for the moment:
1.
If you have seen an assigned show in
the Closed list, please get your ballot in ASAP
2.
If you have seen one of the closed
shows to which you were not assigned and can fill out an alternate ballot,
please let me know
3.
And if you missed a show because it closed
early, please let me know that as well (if you don’t see “MISSED” next to your
name, I don’t know if you saw it or not)
4.
WATCH reps, please keep me posted on
any changes to your theater’s schedule.
Many of you have already been doing this and I have gotten some info
from websites as they are updated, but there are a number of shows coming up in
April and May on which I have no info
Thanks. And stay safe
and healthy.
*****************************************
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.
5.
If you have access to a scanner,
Margaret would love to receive copies of the program for every show that you
judge. You can email this directly to
her by replying to your ballot confirmation for any show.
