T-One week and counting
Apr. 2nd, 2008 11:51 amWe have our "friends and family" preview audience next Wednesday (so if any of the semi-local folks who read this are in the mood for some free entertainment on April 9, feel free to show up), and fortunately I managed to make it through the whole show last night without calling for line. Now I just need a week to develop a consistent characterization, and handle timing, blocking changes, and tech. We did manage to run the whole show in ninety minutes last night, which is precisely where it should clock in.
The Executive Producer of the theatre sat in on the rehearsal last night, but I didn't get any feedback on the show quality. Don't know if that's good news or bad news--we tread a very narrow edge, and the chasm below us is labelled "over the top," but it is Steve Martin we're talking about here. Failure to completely commit to the insanity will be a tragedy.
Anyone who wishes to come to town for live theatrical entertainment will be bought beer, or food, or both. If you come April 25-27, you can catch The Underpants AND Room Service at Theatre Memphis, which will be amusing in a moderately different way.
