Fearg on Fridays IV

Woop de woop racial slur what!

S'up my theatrical gangstas. Yeah, I know, I'll drop my Dre-isms. For now, but they'll be back. This week has been a roller-coaster with ups downs, everything bar the scouts vomiting while they eat their lunch. (It's a UK classic TV reference all those of you in the US).

This picture MAY be in your newspaper tomorrow. We don't know. -

Sunday was probably the worst day yet for the company, we were in the brand-spanking-new £1.5 million Ustinov studio, so the day couldn't be that bad. But it tried. Oh how it tried. We ran the 90 minute play from start to finish in around 2 hours 3o. Speedy. Then we had a bit of a state of the union talk, lines needed to be learnt, jokes needed to be slicked, the play just needed polishing.

Then Monday, Marc (our guest director) arrived and reaped the benefits of our cataclysmic Sunday, because we were super focused and motivated. It went great, we ran it worked on bits, changed bits, put them back, changed them again. It were reet good I tell thee. We basically started playing again. It's not a finished article yet, but throughout this week we've been busting all kinds of grooves everywhere.

I think that the play is still a little slow, we speed ran it today and I think we can probably be faster than we speed ran. But it is freaking hilarious. You'll chuckle along most of the way, then there are a few genuine belly-laughs. I'm very proud as I'm sure Josh is too. Also, today we started recording our radio bits which had us shouting "F*CK!!!" Very loudly underneath a cafe chock full of little babies. It was incongruous to say the least. Sounds very funny though. I should point out that the swearing is in context, it is not meaningless and gratuitous.

Right, well this hasn't really been funny. I'm sorry. I prostrate myself upon the altar of your forgiveness, I offer you my prostate to alter in forgiveness? What? Too vulgar? Maybe so...but not bad nonetheless I may steal it. Is it stealing if it's from yourself? Can I think of a fifth question? Yes, yes I can. Ha.

Good day to you sir.
Much love.
