Dream On, is no longer Dream On
We have changed the name of the show to, "That 70's Show"
This is inpart due to our 70's theme, as well as the fact that we have replaced almost every song with 70's hits and classics.
The main reason for this is our time constraint. the sad fact is that we do not have enough time to do a full production, so we have cut out almost all the singing and will be adlibing to the hits. Yes this does cut away fromt he actors glory, but improves the production on a whole, which is what I have to be worried about.
Stage Manager,
As stage manager I have started to mess aorund with the lighting and have created a rough draft of the lighting angles I will need to achieve. Tomorrow I will confer with mr lawrence and see what his opinion is. Also Me and Jed (props manager) have been working together to get a scroll prop together. Tomorrow i will go through the props list with him and double check everything is in place.
Hopefully soon I will be able to choreograph the tango scene, between theseus and hippolyta. But theseus is out of town for visa purposes. Hopefully he will be abck soon.
Now I feel a small measure of control over the play, and think we are heading in the right direction.
