Much more accomplished today in our heavy-duty three hour rehearsal today. I am happy to see so much coming together, but there is still plenty to do to get this to the level of awesome that I know we can achieve.
This week we will hit Act I Monday and Wednesday, Act II Tuesday and Thursday. We will also settle the rest of the movement for "I Don't Need Anything..." Rehearsal length will be based on what we need to get done, so be prepared to stay past the 8:30ish time frame we've been observing. I will try to get the orphans out a bit earlier this week so that they are well rested for show week. Keep in mind that Wednesday is press night, and some folks are due at the theater, in costume, at 6 (for TV!!).
I haven't said this explicitly because so many people are already there, but as of Monday everyone should be off book (as in No Script in Your Hand On Stage At All Ever). Study study study!
If we get in a real bind, there is the possibility of a rehearsal next Saturday to pull that together. We'll see what happens as we progress. Easter weekend will also be our time to help finish the set and anything the tech, costume and prop crews can use.
Keep working and preparing and rehearsing and reviewing. Opening is just 13 days away!!
