Popped in to the office for a bit (after terrible traffic and then further delays with a fire alarm as soon as I got in), finally worked out how to log into the system I'm supposed to be working with.
Did five hours there, got back and then out to the first rehearsal for the murder mystery show. A slightly nervy session, to be honest. Just the scale of the project hit home; we had a read through of the script and it's totally a winner (relief!) but it's just so...well, long. It has to be, of course, as that's what people have paid for (a 90 minute show) and the plot really develops and works this way, but these are musicians - not actors. We'll get through it, somehow, I just need to somehow build the confidence of my lovely little team.
We then had a run through of all of the songs. They're all great, but again...so complex.
This show feels like it's a total beast, but if we can get it right we're onto a real winner here...
