Rehearsals - Week 3

Week 3 of rehearsal - 120 days to opening night

Week 3 of rehearsals, and we started off with the HCP AGM which saw the old committee continue on as the new committee unopposed - hurrah for them - and then the rest of the evening was devoted to Georgina teaching/finishing off Big Time and starting the......dun dun duuurrrrnnnn....that was dramatic music in case you hadn't guessed....starting the tap routine (**cue psycho music**). And it was looking/sounding pretty good from my non-dancy/tappy standpoint.


Thursday saw a bit more of the old hoffing, and then another 10 pages blocked - but unfortunately 12 people were missing, a third of the cast, so it means having to redo it again at another time....my hearts already sinking at the amount of time we're going to have to over stuff again.

But on the plus side people are still smiling etc, despite some niggly behind the scenes schenaigans which will be sorted one way or another in the next couple of weeks. And the banner at the Regent Centre is up on the back of the building (see above) over looking the town car park which means it'll get plenty of coverage.

I'm spending the next 4 days on M&M - today was costume for Jen and I'm almost done, tomorrow into Sunday is Set Building schematics for John G, and Sunday/Monday is story boarding the overture etc for Jon Hall (animation genius (**whispers** he hates me saying that but it's true))...

So plenty to do. Do be do be dooo (that's my Frank Sinatra impression right there). Have a nice Easter.

    Loving the new frontpage link, typical Mathieson, I ended up watching the little guys run their routine!

  2. shh! people will talk! Now get on with more blogging, those of us that failed audition (ok so i'm like 400 miles away and webcam rehearsals didn't fit with work, but that's a minor detail!) need to be kept abreast with developments!
    Hugs to all, its looking so exciting, and its great to feel your pain through the blog!
