Meh.
Even more tired than yesterday. Got home at 3AM instead of 2AM. Oy. At least I can sleep in for a few more hours tomorrow.
But we have lights! And sound! ...and exhausted actors.
Tonight is tech run for the first half, and full run for the second, which is still giving me problems. I've realised I like the first half of R&J much better than the second. And not just because of Mercutio. The second half is like a large downward spiral, which, for some odd reason, moves far slower than it ought to.
At the moment, the halves are basically the same length. This worries me, on account of the audience. But I love the intermission falling just after Mercutio and Tybalt die, both thematically and in terms of a rather heartbreaking tableau as the lights go down. So the audience will just have to deal.
For those in the Columbus area, performance times are as follows:
Thursday 30 March, 8:00 PM
Saturday 1 April, 2:00 PM and 8:00 PM
All performances will be held in Hitchcock Hall Auditorium (Rm 131), on Ohio State's campus. Admission is free, so don't claim poverty as your excuse.
