Breaking the Ice

I hope everyone had a GREAT Halloween!

We made it through our first rehearsal weekend, YAY! This group of performers is very talented and they all worked extremely hard. I was tired after the weekend...so they must be in a coma. I know, I know, you are asking yourself, what did I do? I am old. I don't need an excuse. :)

I had Shrimp and Jose as overnight guests, which was great fun. I hope they enjoyed the Abe's Bed & Breakfast. Although breakfast consisted of a quick cup of coffee and a donut. No linen napkins and scones here, I'm afraid.

I am so excited to see what this ensemble is capable of. They are certainly a gorgeous bunch of bananas. They are Box 5 in Visual Appearance. Drew worked on drill all day Saturday, now that we have our final cast set. I bet he is about sick of the music already...he has to listen to it over and over and over. Luckily, it is a gorgeous piece and I cannot wait to hear it at the first show. Sara & Heath worked the gang on technique and taught them some new "tricks". That is always fun to watch. You put it in your teeth, swing your head to the left, release to the back, and catch it under your chin. Watch your turn out!!
