So, I dropped in on the first rehearsal yesterday to bring the cast and crew food for their lunch break. (Last year, when I did this for the cast of An Uncivil Union I brought them a food based on the script: corn bread and rabbit stew. I even gave Ryan Robertson, the male lead in AUU, a bacon bouquet on opening night -- because the men in the play steal 500 lbs of bacon.) So, maybe there was some concern when I said I'd show up with food... but hopefully they were happy with humus & pita, dehydrated green beans, potato chips and ribs. You'll understand once you see the play.
I got to see the cast rehearse the last two minutes before half-time. (Yes, Steph & I are encouraging the use of "half-time" instead of "intermission.") I wanted to stay for more because it's so exciting... but I had kids in the car and when I finally rejoined them I was bombarded with, "Where were you?" They'd even sent one of their numbers out to scout for me.
Anyway... it's very exciting. Very exciting.
