Planning to produce a large musical in one location is complicated enough. Add the extra element of taking the show to a completely different performance venue and you will find a whole new level of complexity! Our cast and crew spent most of the day yesterday focusing on working out the kinks and figuring out how to run the show in both venues. At our "Dry Tech" rehearsal, we worked through every scene, lighting, and costume change in the show. We typically do this rehearsal without most of the actors but because there is so much business going on behind the scenes throughout the show and lots of traffic, we had our entire company present. We worked out traffic patterns, scenic spacing, and scenery movement along with quick change locations and some last minute lighting adjustments. It was a long day but went very smoothly thanks to the dedication of our crew, cast, and parent volunteers. Now we are ready to put it with music and tap dancing tonight as we do our first complete tech/dress run thru. Keep up the great work, everyone!
