We started the day with a brunch and then continued on to the concert hall.. where in the afternoon we rehashed Act I .. completely until 5:30. Left had a quick supper and came back to be onstage for 7... where we continued until past 10:00pm.
Normally, the orchestra would be in the pit and we would be onstage, but instead, the orchestra was on stage .. with the soloists up front and we behind. It was a bit difficult hearing the soloists with the instruments between us.. but realize this is just for today, when we get back to working on this later this summer, we will have the stage to ourselves, but for the moment it felt a little constrained.
It was fun and exciting but at the end of the day... I was pretty glad to be finished as my feet were sore!
Here's a little idea what it looks like before we start.. just sitting around:
Here is Philip, he will be playing Capitain Proton.. he's very sweet and very talented.. and not too hard on the eyes either ;-)
Being behind the orchestra while they were warming up made for an interesting and unusual view!
