It amazes me how close the show is. Today is March
5th, 2013. The show is March 8th; opening night is only three days from now. We
have not yet done a full run through of the show. We are still nit picking
certain things. It amazes me how some people are so oblivious as to what's
going. I find it very frustrating that people are talking backstage, not paying
attention, not listening to the directors, getting in the way of stage crew,
and missing their queues. During hell week, rehearsals run for a very long time
and it is expected that you will get hungry but it's not fair to the other
members of the show to be working and having someone else sitting down eating a
meal. We are all hungry so we eat a quick snack like a granola bar or something
along the lines but to be ordering out is simply rude, especially when people
miss their queues because of meals.
Time is one of my fears. There never seems to be enough time. People go
through life as if they have all the time in the world but you have a finite
amount of time. We have two more rehearsals to make this show the best it can
be. It's not a lot of time and it's astounding how people do not realize this.
We've worked months preparing to present this show to the public and it's just
around the corner now. It feels like this is taken too lightly. We have to get
our acts together to put this show together. Of course it will all work out in
the end like all high school productions do, but we don't want it to be a
typical high school production; we want it to stand out and be utterly
speechless.
