Irma Vep Is Going To Need New Boots...

…for all the ASS she is going to kick. I couldn’t be more excited about how things are going. Honestly. Last night, we did a run-through of the costume changes (2 guys playing 8 parts!), and it was ridiculous. Even taking things step by step, it was enough to make my head spin. Thank god for Velcro. We’re still looking for costume volunteers… otherwise who knows how we’re going to make the changes fast and efficient. Anyone out there interested in being part of our ‘pit crew’?

In addition, our sound man was also in the theatre last night. He showed us what he had in store, and the musical selections were phenomenal. The music which will also be played during the scenes, not just for between, is really going to do something to heighten the suspense, the comedy, and the dramatic tension. It gave me and Nano (my co-star) chills, and we were just sitting in chairs listening to the music. I can’t wait until we have a live audience…

We’ve got another rehearsal tonight. It’s going to take some time to coordinate everything into a fine-tuned machine I know it can be, but it’s also going to be one heck of a ride.

Come and see.
