We're Off To See The Wizard

I apologize for not posting for a couple of days.  I have been super busy due to extended family being in town and my being in rehearsal for "The Wizard of Oz" at a local children's theatre.  I am super excited to be playing the role of Dorothy, alongside a wonderful cast of young people and adults.  It is an absolute blast, but rehearsals are getting later and later.  I thought I'd keep you updated to show what goes into a professional theatre production leading up to the opening night, which for us is next Thursday!  Yesterday we worked Act I and today we worked Act II of the show.  At this point, we are able to run everything, but in the coming days we will be adding technical elements, and on Sunday we add the orchestra, so we are working to polish what we do so we can hand the show over to tech starting Thursday.  The theatre I'm doing the show with is the 3rd oldest children's theatre in the nation, and is the only professional children's theatre in our city.  It is super fun to be involved with them, and I love the atmosphere created by the people there.  I will continue to update, but for now, I'm off to see the wizard (or go to sleep, ya know...).  Goodnight, all!
