I am not the PP, but I want the show to be an hour. If there are more acts than that in the show, then the solution is not to cut kids; the solution is to have two shows.[/quote]
My very large elementary used to have 2 shows and they still needed to cut kids. When there are 800+ kids at an elementary...

My daughter really wanted to do the show. She practiced her act with her friend religiously. She tried out, they didn't make it. Was she disappointed? Sure! Was getting rejected a good learning experience for her? You bet it was![/quote]

Then you have three shows. Or you have two shows that are each an hour and a half. The parents will just have to suffer.[/quote]

Says the person who probably NEVER volunteers to run these shows.  At our school they are PTA volunteers because the teachers said no-no! a long time ago.  Why you ask?  Parents like you were hunting them down trying to find out why Larla's screeching of Let It Go, didn't make the cut.   Last year, we had 159 acts try-out.  If we didn't cut any of them, it would have been 8 hours of acts, not including breaks in-between acts or breaks of any kind.  If you want to come and run 5 shows in one week lasting 2-2.5hrs each, come on over!!  [/quote]
