so rehearsal today was hysterical! i almost started crying at onoe point.
we blocked the "barnyard" scene.... this means 7 grown women were running around the stage acting like chicken... and one was a nasty mean vixen who eats them. SO it wasn't very funny when Dr G was saying "you pounce here, run over there, bite her... blah blah" but when they ran through it once, i almost died laughing. first, the rooster fell down before she was pounced, and later one of the hens fell right into a chair (with her head). when they went back, the director yelled "chickens, standby!" and that set us into super laughs...... until he yelled at
"how do humans lay eggs?"
"oh i think you just dislocate your hips to make space...? for the egg?"
"....really?"
"yeah..... so work on that."
"that sounded good? i have no idea what i just did."
"all that snapping and arm waving, what made you choose that for your character?"
"i just don't know when i'm supposed to come in."
"you have a woman's ass on your breast."
ha! ann, i now have a fun rehearsal blog. HAHA!
