All in the Timing
The play is finally starting to come together. We had a run-through of the entire second act last night, so I got to see bits and pieces of the phabulous Philadelphia and the mind-blowing Philip Glass. I'm totally in awe.
We're still not line-perfect on Trotsky, but our transitions between variations are getting much smoother, and we're starting to get some decent laughs. It's nice to have this time to get accustomed to performing in front of an audience; it definitely rattled me a bit the first time, but last night I started to get used to it and enjoy the energy. I'm getting more comfortable with the accent so I can spare bits of my brain to think about projection and articulation and timing and oh yes acting a little :)
Only a week and a day until our first performance -- eep! Now if only I could get the blasted program finalized.
