HCB Additional notes Tue May 9
Hi All
The Bella Rose stage and the Green Room will not be accessible on Tuesday May 9. The school is getting ready for “Matilda the Musical” on May 11-13. Approximately 17 Halifax West music stands will be used by a pit band, which will also be borrowing our bass drum.
Between the remaining Halifax West music stands and the existing HCB music stands, there should be enough for our rehearsal. If you are concerned, you could bring your own stand.
