Had an interesting rehearsal - we did run the whole show, but occasionally stopped to work the set change (involving four moving panels). I also added some new moves for the last three scenes. They work very well and are very light. One actress who has been a problem was one hour late, professing she thought we started at six. Funny that, as the calendar clearly says five. Another actress' mom is near death, so she's flying out tomorrow and won't return to us until Friday. Another actress has lost her voice - no surprise to me, certainly. So, rehearsing this week is going to be really hellish because another actress is also gone until Thursday. So, the first time I will have my full cast again isn't until Friday, at which point we are one week from tech, which infuriates me as this week is pretty much a lost week in terms of doing proper run-throughs with our full company.
