It was off to Mary Poppins rehearsal.
Today was "Mary Poppins Boot Camp" day. Since the girls start on-stage tomorrow with other actors for the first time - the stage manager and resident director have been standing in up until now - today was a big review and clean-up day. And, boy, did we do a lot of cleaning up and reviewing. By the end of next week, they will, hopefully, have gone through the whole show with the understudy cast on stage, and then the following week, I believe their put-in rehearsals start. -They'll run sections of the show in full costume with all the sets and props with the rest of the company.
It was a very productive day. Alas, there are still two sections of the show that just "refuse" to stick in my brain and in my hands. -And I had even gotten to the rehearsal space early to review/practice them on my own. Arrrggghh! Thankfully(?), they will be running those two sections during tomorrow's rehearsal, but I'm not the pianist on-duty for that, so... However, if I can manage it, I'm gonna sit in and listen and continue to learn.
