Audition Date and Venue BOOKED! Hurrah.

Week 24 - 253 days to opening night

Booked the date and venue for the Mack & Mabel's open auditions today: 28th February 2010 (1pm - 5pm St Mark's Hall, Hinton Wood Avenue, Highcliffe if you're interested).

What was great was that I only emailled the HCP committee at lunchtime about the request, and within an hour Sue had come back to me saying it was all booked. Amazing efficiency. I expected days, even weeks. Not minutes.

Did the rehearsal schedule over the weekend, am looking at starting rehearsals on the 16th March, which gives anyone who was in the Panto a 6/7 week break and prepare themselves for the hell I'll put them through....

Couple of other things were put in motion as well today, but that's for you to buy a ticket and find out...

Going Retro

Week 23 - 258 days to opening night

I'm going to do some retro advertising I've decided, to supplement the main advertising for the show - so I've made a start....

Back from the future

Week 23 - 260 days to opening night

I'm back. Did you miss me? Was there this strange neil-shaped hole in your life? They'll write poems about this epic seperation we've been through. I've missed you. No, really. How'd that thing you were doing go? Y'know the thing with the doodah whatjamacallit.

Anyhoo, I'm back from Scotland, and moved into the new place - but no broadband access at the mo (Must. Not. Cry **bites lower lip**) so I'm back onto M&M with avengence. My plan is to have the show completely blocked by the end of this month, have the majority of the overture and intertitles animated and done by end of December - I'm trying to get as much done this year before we start set building early next year - so that it doesn't all become a massive nightmare.

Everythings chuggin' along nicely - everyone's up to their eyes in the xmas show (sold out) and the Panto (heading for a sell out) so it's busy busy busy. I've just been continuing with set design - but all the really hard work is about to start....
