Had a good rehearsal last night. For some reason lines were extra-slippery—pretty much everyone dropped or at least fumbled at least one—but thanks to a conversation with Elizabeth earlier in the day, I finally figured out some stuff about my character and motivation that totally changed a few of my scenes, much for the better. I'm finally feeling reasonably comfortable with my part, although I'm glad we have the dress rehearsals left, and I think getting the lights in will make a huge difference. I always find it distracting playing to a lit house -- much easier to get absorbed into the world on stage when I can't see the other world.

I sat in and watched the whole show for the first time, and there are some fabulous bits. [livejournal.com profile] heliopsis and [livejournal.com profile] alfie1981 in particular crack me up every time they're onstage, even -- no, especially -- when they don't have any lines. We are so blessed in our cast. And the tree! [livejournal.com profile] muffyjo has worked miracles. We have a huge old oak tree in the middle of the stage that looks better than I ever dared dream.

One week from tomorrow! Hope to see lots of you there...
