So, what's new......
Well.
We have six beautiful chairs which we succesfully bought on ebay. They are in need a very little TLC but Pete Williams at Worle is on the case and is very happy to make sure they are stage worthy. They are the genuine article - though at this precise moment I can't remember the name of them.....hmmm
On a visit to QEH Jane Barry and I also commandeered three tables and so the set dressing for outside the cafe is sorted.
With regard to the set, I have been in touch wiht the Bristol OldVic Theatre School and am currently negotiating a student on the carpentry course to build the flats for the set. This is excellent news and very exciting, it also promotes the show in Bristol that little bit more.
Sunday this weekend the choreographer (Marina Fairhead) is joining us to suss out the dancers.....get flexible guys!!!
We also made a snap buy on costumes recently and got three pairs of EXQUISITE palazzo pants for the three ladies, they have to be seen to be believed!! Gorgeous.
We are now the proud owners of about 9 birdcages. Just when I think we have enough, another one appears on freecycle and so I snatch it up. I reckon we shall deck the foliage with birdcages all over.
This weekend we welcome our new Pamina and Tamino. Very excited to finally be working with the cast in full. All those who have been coming before I know you will make Alex and Abi very welcome and help them through their first experience of being directed by me!!! They are aslo meeting with the music student at Worle every Wednesday afternoon to get really familiar with their 'tunes' before Steve arrives on the 5th. In relation to that, if anyone else wants me to try and organise a session for them then let me know - all music rehearsals are very valuable as it is now 2012 and time will FLY by.
By the end of this weekend we will have blocked the whole show with the new adapted script and all the changes. Steven feels he may change the odd lyric to suit the style of the music as he goes along but there will be no major changes after this edition.
So this weekend is going to be exciting. Please try and set some tiem aside on the Saturday evening to join in the social aspect of the production - a few glasses of alcoholic beverage at a venue to be decided by those taking part.
I wills ee you at Worle School - in the Dance Studio - at 10 sharp on Saturday.
