Session 29 - 19 July 2009

Today was the last day we spent in the rehearsal room before moving across to the Almeida stage, beginning our production week where our wonderful set awaited us. In the rehearsal we run the show at a staggered pace, improving and adding additional pieces as we went. Once we had finished the first run we received notes that added to the on-going direction we had received during the run. We then went from there to re-run certain scenes taking our new direction on board and the fact that the stage would change the performance which we would be standing on very soon. This was especially true for the ensemble pieces or the scenes that required all of us on stage as they needed extra precision and attention. We finally prepared for the week that was ahead through discussing what would be different and what challenges we would be facing.
