A Small Conclusion

So I have come to a small epiphany *insert lightning strike here* there is an interesting predicament with my business. Normally we are behind, aka rushing to get things finished before the show opens, right now I am having the opposite problem. The actor/director contingent of my show is about six days ahead of schedule. Now being ahead is one thing, but being ahead that far is causing its own set of problems; namely that I am afraid that the show will peak before we get out of tech (which starts Monday). My director has a cold so that has slowed him down a bit today, but there are still four days until we are in tech and probably three until we can be on the set. SO I asked myself this question "What are we going to do with four days of rehearsal left?" The answer is work a little and rest a little before the wonderful madness of tech :)

One Week Down...

I have made a decision that I'm going to try to update this blog on a somewhat more regular basis, and start taking my camera places.

So we are one week into rehearsal. Observations (why thank you I believe I will)
1. This is a VERY funny show!
2. Our carpentry shop is awesome (not that everyone else isn't, just that they are ahead...i.e. they are building faster then my TD can draft)
3. Gary is going to be here in a week *happy dance* I need my gay man!
4. Our costumers rock!

We've had some crazy thunderstorms out here the last few days. I caught this bolt two days ago...I didn't even realize I got this picture until I loaded the pictures from my camera today.

By the by this is the view from my room :)

Tomorrow is another day...just another day in paradise,

The Update

Okaaaaaay,
So to uncode my last post as it is now out in the open. Our Executive Director is leaving...Monday. This leaves the BHP leaderless. We've been reassured by the Board of Directors that there is no threat to to our season. However I don't believe we will have a new E.D. before the season is out. Even though we have be reassured, there is still unrest in the company, mainly those that have been here before, and I can't blame them.

Rehearsal for Leading Ladies is going very well. The show is a farce and v,ery commical. I think it will sell well and word of mouth will be (as it always is) our best ally.

I still do not have work lined up after the BHP...worrywort.

Later days,
Laura

War?

What do you do when you are fighting a loosing battle and have no where to retreat? Become heroes? Become martyrs? I wish it were that easy. AND there is the fact that this is and isn't my battle. Part of me feels like I'm sticking my nose where it doesn't freakin' belong and the other side argues that it is my job...well sort of my job.

I hope the warriors are ready it is going to be one heck of a battle.




How was that for criptic? If things go the way I think they are going then I will update soon and make this DiVinci Code of an entry make some more sense.
