Clothes you have in hand at beginning of song:
Lyn: gown; Sue B.: blouse; Sharon: camisole; Connie: towel; Caroline: slip; Marie: sheet;
Only on word "UP" do we pass clothes, except for a few times.
Lyn: order of picking up items:
skirt, hanky, ribbons, tights, slippers, pantaloons, shoes, union suit
The union suit is the "EEK!" in the music.
We are not doing the "psst!" part, unless you can give me reason to do so. I just can't see why all of you would go and spy on Jeanie at this time. Or why it was written into ,the music.
We will move objects on "clothes" and "suppose"
We will not pass the next 8 bars but will hold up the hankies, ribbons, tights and slippers, whoever has them.
The trunk closes on 9 bars after K. We will need to pass all the rest of what we have by then. So, starting at K, we will pass quickly to finish on time.
Immediately after, Charlie comes in, says, "Hi!" and we will all look at him C S and say "Charlie!" Those up on the stairs will scurry up, halfway down will go to kitchen SR 3. Siggy and Patty will take out trunk SR 3. Nancy will exit with them. Shelli, Michelle, and (?) will go to upstage bench.
