Back from rehearsal, which again was sans one actor who shouldn't really be missing these rehearsals - methinks when he returns tomorrow night that it will be backwards time instead of forwards. I hope I'm wrong. Tonight's run was very smooth and there's a real nice show here - once again I sang the missing actor's songs and even got up twice to do bits - what's interesting is because I know all the material by heart for many years, I interpret rather than try to remember the music and lyrics and where I'm going - it makes all the difference to that other cast members. Anyway, hopefully our sick cast member has been drilling constantly at home - if not, we're in for a world of problems.
