Coming soon to a theatre.
Feb. 20th, 2006 01:45 pmMeasure for Measure opens officially on Friday, but we have our "friends and family" performance on Wednesday and our sponsor performance on Thursday, so we're essentially in final dress mode for the next two rehearsals.
Ordinarilly I don't get the audience dynamic going until several shows into a run, so it should help to have preview audiences to get some of the laugh timing down, and know exactly how far we should stretch the fourth wall (although since this is essentially in football staging, we have both the third and fourth walls with audiences behind 'em.).
Good show? I can't usually tell when I'm in something. It feels good; we get some reaction from the director and the crew on occasion. Wednesday should be a pretty good indicator, even though the audience will consist of our friends, the relative obscurity of the show should change the dynamic once they get past my pimp costume.
Unofficial publicity photos forthcoming! Once I take some!
