Will the cast have a chance to fix their make-up? Remember that stage make-up is a bit exaggerated: helps see emotions from the audience pov but can be too much for the camera.
If they do not want the photos out the same night (i.e., you have a chance to tweak it) shoot RAW so you can fine tune the white balance.
