On your mark….

You give yourself almost 5 months to produce a show and it’s amazing that with one week to go there still seems to be about 8,000 issues that need to be handled. And after 4 months of rehearsal, you always think your piece could use a little more cleaning or you suddenly have a artistic break through and you decide that making your dancers clap and skip for 16 counts of 8 was in retrospect not the best of ideas. So you scramble around with 3 days before dress rehearsal trying to rearrange schedules so that you can fit in one, two, three more rehearsals. And then you end up with a 5 hour rehearsal on Saturday morning and the strong hankerin’ for a very large scotch.
