You Can't Take It With You

[gilana]

I keep thinking I should post something about You Can't Take It With You, but I don't really seem to have much to say about it. I'm only in one scene, so I haven't had that many rehearsals until recently. I like my character, and I think I'm doing some fun stuff, but I don't know that I'm really growing a lot as an actor in the part.

We did a cue-to-cue last night, and I finally got to hear audioboy's fabulous sound effects and journeystar's spectacular props and see our special effects -- way beyond anything T@F has done before, I can't wait to see the audience reaction.

Mostly, I'm enjoying the cast bonding that's finally starting to happen. We've got a few new people that I like a lot, and I feel like we're really starting to gel as a group. I'm looking forward to running the whole show with lights and costumes. Can't believe we open a week from tonight! I think it's going to be a really fun show, from both sides of the stage.

(Oh, and the userpic is the Kirby family in the show, courtesy of mangosteen. Handsome family I have there.)

Wow. I like how the family photo turned out.

No need to be jealous -- here's one for you!

Oh good Lord, the Dutchess looks as drunk as Gay Wellington!

Awesome! I wish we'd done proper Sycamore family photos, too. Hopefully the shots we have will be okay.

Love the family portrait! Now I want to attack it with Photoshop and make it painting-y. Or have you? :-)

I can't wait to see the show. Not sure yet when I actually will, though.

Oooh, thanks for reminding me! I can't wait to see it. I read it in high school but I've never seen a production. The script, iirc, calls for a live cat to be used as a paperweight. And a snake? (At least, this is my recollection from 12 years ago.)

[gilana]

You do remember correctly, but I'm afraid no live animals will be used in the production. It's a shame, I really like snakes.

YOWZA! if you'd posted these earlier, i'd have booked a ticket to boston like a shot! especially if i compare to the production i'm working on now, and... just... *sigh*. i miss you guys. break OH so many legs, love!

[gilana]

Wah! Is it too late now? I was just talking with Beckie the other day about how much we miss you and how we wish you could be here for the show.
