Auditions have been and gone. Two sets - one on Sunday afternoon (above), and one on Tuesday evening. Both really well attended, and of a very high standard which was really, really good.
We met up last night - MD, Choregrapher, etc and went through all the auditons that we videoed, and then sat and talked through people, pairings, and then lots of variations on the cast - it's the usual 'well if 'A' is that, then you can't have 'B' as that, because of XYZ, but if 'Z' is that then 'X' can be this and 'C' can be that. So on and so on. All very complicated. And the thing is once you've decided on a cast it isn't elation, or pleasing..it's all alittle depressing because you've got to disappoint so many people. So many talented people who went for a part and didn't get it. You only have to hope that they'll stick around. I don't think they all will but you never know.
So today was about confirming 1 thing which would allow the cast list to slot into place - which we got. And so tonight I'm organising the email list for the cast and the list gets published tomorrow. It was going to be Saturday but I've had an annoying amount of 'when are you going to publish the list' despite me telling people to be patient as we only had our meeting last night and it'd be before sunday.
Still it's nice everyone's so keen. My next posting - obviously will be the cast list. Then let the abusive disgruntled emails begin....
