Final Day of Previews

Well I watched today's performance. We really have an amazing cast, crew and orchestra. The audience gave the show a standing ovation! And it was deserved but so far the best performance that I have watched has been the first (last Thursday). Today's show had some rough choral elements as well as some performances that I think were effected by report cards at school! Technically the stage manager and stage crew have the tech elements well in hand. I only had one note each for props, set and costumes.

There was a strange noise during the second act that I was unable to determine if it was 1.) a squeaky ventilation fan, 2.) a hearing aid feeding back, 3.) a personal ventilating device being used by the old man in front of me, 4.) a feedback issue from the reeds section. My sound guy heard it too so it probably wasn't number 3!

Tomorrow is our press opening. Our artistic director is already thinking about bringing this show back for our 2011 season and I think that's only because we are already contracted to do a different show in 2010! So 24 hours from now the house will open and the fun will begin!
