Nathan Chen

He'll probably arrive here day before (like Shibs did and most other do). He may choose to skate a session the day of arrival, and then the afternoon of show day, we have a rehearsal and he will learn his parts in the group numbers (opening and closing) from the head choreographer Stephanee, and he will also find out where his programs with be in the layout of the show.

I hope you get to come to see pro practice Mamamiia!

Thank you for your always informative posts. Forgive my ignorance, but does the Sun Valley competition being held that week change the practice arrangements for show performers at all? Or are there so many ice surfaces that it doesn't matter?

They have 2 rinks, an indoor rink and an outdoor one. The competition is held in the indoor rink, rehearsal and practice will most likely happen in the outdoor rink. However, the competition should be ended by 5pm Saturday so they may still use the indoor rink after competition for practice.

Thank you. You've really done your research ahead of your trip :)

The cast will have Saturday afternoon practice on the outdoor rink. Pre-show warmup occurs on the indoor rink. The competition should be over by then.

Let me clarify my post from earlier. The competition should be over for the day on the indoor rink on Sat July 21 by the time cast has to warmup for show. I'm pretty sure that the competition ends around 7.00 pm on Saturday. The last day overall for competition is Sunday July 22 and that is the only day it will be on the outdoor rink.

Pro practice should happen daily all week on the outdoor rink as usual and then the Saturday afternoon practice with Nathan learning group numbers and where his solos will fit in will also occur on outdoor rink.

Can't wait to see Nathan learning group numbers.:luv17: I checked yesterday, the indoor rink will be closed for the show around 5pm on Saturday.

That's interesting since the competition schedule indicates they will be using it until 715 pm
