Last night, I got dragged into a meeting right before I had to leave to pick up all the posters and post cards from the printer before rehearsal. I left the meeting a bit early, but this really through me off my game. Also, I had the large backpack with me, in addition to my already full pannier.
I ran upstairs to the printer and suddenly realized I didn't have my pannier! I guess because I am used to having one thing or the other. I had them ring me up and ran back downstairs. That would have been quite tragic had the pannier been stolen, as it had the script, my second pair of shoes and my laptop. I can't quite imagine what explaining this to IT would have been like if the pannier had been stolen.
The printer liked the poster quite a bit, and said they wished they could stay at the Bed and Breakfast.
I biked over to rehearsal, not having enough time to go to the Indian place after all. I stopped in a tiny variety store on Symington, but I don't plan on going back after they gave me so much grief about using a debit card. Rehearsals are almost over anyway.\
I thought rehearsal went well. We are running about 8 minutes long, but if the actors really get their lines down and we pick up the pace, we should be fine. Fingers crossed.
I managed to get the whole cast (minus Victoria, our stage manager) to sign one of the posters.
I distributed a bunch of the larger posters and most of the postcards.
This is what I have left:
I wonder if I am going to have to do another run of postcards. I guess that's fine as long as it actually leads to some people buying tickets.
Anyway, we have one more rehearsal Sat. evening (and maybe I will finally get to that Indian place near Lansdowne that evening), tech on Sun. afternoon, then a night of running lines Monday evening at my place. And then it's three days or so before our opening. It truly is right around the corner!
Happy Fringing!
