Rehearsal Day 4

Leave a comment

Story of my life…

I like to pride myself on someone who is prepared. Some times I’m told I over prepare. Well, until my list of things to prepare grows beyond five things.

What does this have to do with the fourth day of rehearsals?

I’ve prepared for this show before rehearsals began and try to keep ahead of the schedule…until the schedule changes. Then all my preparations go out the window.

BUT, it wasn’t too extreme where I had no idea what I was doing, but it did throw a few rocks in my gears.

Anybut, the show is coming along. It’s going to be crazy when we finally move into the theater and get on the actual stage…but fun.

I tend to be the overly positive and calm one…most times.

Rehearsal Day 3

Interesting day…

Had to take on the role of go-between communicator between a puppet maker and the director and Artistic director…

Okay.

It was fine, but a lot of confusion happened. A lot that could’ve been avoided, but this is theater and WE DO IT LIVE!!!

It wasn’t actually that dramatic. Everything worked out…at least on my end. Who knows how it went with everyone else, but I did my best and my (at first) apprehensiveness has become a little bit of comfort in my knowledge of the situation.

Sorry for the vagueness, but again, I want to keep my work anonymous to an extent.

Anybut, besides that, rehearsal went well. A lot got done and I’m still super excited for this show even if some of the technical people are a little on edge.

But that’s part of the appeal of theater.

Rehearsal Day 2

Day 2 Begins…

More music.

More Dancing.

And some Rat tapping sprinkled in for fun.

Saw even more people I haven’t seen in a while so that was fantastic. Even caught up with people I haven’t seen in almost four months…so, YAY!

I’m going to see how long I can keep these rehearsal posts going…don’t know how popular they’ll be, especially since I can’t really say what show I’m working on.

But I’ll drop hints throughout.

Anybut, this day was fun mostly because the actors were having fun while learning choreography even if it was a little complicated.

Rehearsal Day 1

Leave a comment

My job has begun…

Day 1 of rehearsal was yesterday (rehearsals go until 11pm at night so any posts I make will be the following day).

Nothing super exciting happened. It was a music rehearsal. It was nice to hear the music with the cast but when most of your job is more getting up and doing things….well, I got a lot of other work done.

It’s also always great to see people I haven’t seen in a few months. Some more than others.

This rehearsal process is going to be a lot more interesting than the last show I did.

Anybut, on to day 2!!!
