Who wants a ROOT BEER float?!?!

We really need to work on our lines!!! Shannon Hayes has graciously offered to treat anyone who has all of their lines memorized on Monday (without saying "line"), a root beer float!  She will also be there to run lines with people.  So if you have all of your lines memorized, she will treat you and if you don't, then she is taking you away to run lines when you are not on stage!  

It is all up to you!
