OH MY GOD IT’S TOMORROW!!!

That’s right Lads and Ladies, Homies and Homegirls, peeps and peepesses (or should that be peepettes?) etc. Tomorrow night at 7:30pm something amazing is going to happen. Will you be witness to it? If you want to be, you know what to do. If you don’t, why the hell are you reading this freaking blog? Get outta here!

Anyhoo, It’s been a long day, have been rigging and plotting and teching and focussing and levelling (all theatre terms) since 9am and now I want to cry, but it’s back in tomorrow bright and early for q2q, dress rehearsal then tidy-up, flyering then THE FIRST SHOW!!! Wicked.

So, I will be doing the lighting and sound during the shows. I have never done this before so if there are any fuckups or lights on when it’s clearly meant to be light etc please don’t boo and throw things up to the technical box, be nice to me! If you know any of the young men I worked with today (fearg, Josh, Andy, Steve Dart) you will know how hilarious it was to enjoy a whole day of ‘Amy’s Box’ jokes. “Is it dark in your box?” “Has Steve got stuck in your box?” “I’m poking Amy with a ruler in her box” etc.

Other things acheived included inventing over-the-sofa-hand-tennis, walking through town with fifteen pizza boxes and the curtain call to end all curtain calls (in a manner of speaking. Kind of the Curtain Call’s curtain call...). No, I’m not going to elaborate, if you want to know what I’m referring to you’ll have to come and see it.

The amount achieved today was five times the amount achieved yesterday, however, Fearg's twelve (and a half he's just demanded) slices of all you can eat Pizza Hut Buffet pizza was not to be scoffed at, or scoffed at all. We also did the get in with a comedy sofa-out-the-office-round-the-corner-down-the-steps-through-the-doors-and-up-the-stairs sketch built in. We literally re-enacted the FRIENDS 'Pivaaat' sketch. Lush! Well, i say 'we', I just carried the cushions.


In fact the more i think about it the more I think we should forget about MATE and just invite people to come and watch the rehearsals!

Saturday is nearly sold out but there are still tickets available for tomorrow and Friday. See you there. If not, I've already told you to bugger off. Really, you people!

Love love, Breasts.
