24 Hours until Load In

TGIF does not apply here at the Playhouse since tomorrow we go into our tech rehearsal.
Woo hoo!

Today I spent the entire day working act one. Lines are still an issue for a few of the actors and personal drama keeps creeping into my rehearsal hall. But i assume that is what happens when you have been staying with the same people for 8 weeks. I am always trying to be a positive force in rehearsal and so far I thin all is going well. I do have to admit that I will be excited when the show opens on tuesday night.
