** WATCH Weekly Report 08-24-22 **
------------------------------------------------------------
To the WATCH Board, Judges, and Alternates:
Please note: If you are assigned to see “Sweat” at SSP, matinees have been changed to 2:00pm (updated below as well).
Also, lately more emails than usual seem to be going astray before they
reach me. If you ever notice information missing from a report that you
have previously contacted me about, please reach out again.
Similarly, when you send your ballot it goes directly to Margaret and I
don’t know about it until she sends the confirmation email. So, if you
have submitted your ballot and your name still appears in a report, it
either means she did not receive it, or I did not receive the
confirmation email. Again, please reach out.
Finally, no, neither of us is losing their mind. (Well, not about this,
anyway.) I was having computer issues yesterday, so this report is
going out (way too early) Thursday morning. Apologies for the delay.
*****************************************
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:
- DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL. It’s very long, and the reply will include the entire thing. Please send a new email to watchadjudication@gmail.com
- DO email me your reservation dates. Really, I want to know!
- DO search this entire report for your name, including in the “Closed” section to see if you owe any ballots.
- 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.
- DO check each theater’s COVID policies before attending any show, even if you think you already know what they are, and make sure you are comfortable attending
