This is it! 04/03/2010
 
So tonight is our last rehearsal.  My chest goes tight at the thought.  We're ready.  We are so ready.  We have press coming for opening, and hopefully a few producers to check it all out.  We finally got the pipe and drape built.  So two shout outs:
Brie Madrid and Jim Vozella
Holy crap!  This two people saved the show.  I would not have been able to build the set without Jim, and I wouldn't have been able to sew the curtains without Brie.   In case you have no idea what I'm talking about, we essentially had to build a backdrop to cover up the set we are on top of.  However not a simple task.  Turning 41 yards of material into usable curtains, tricky.  Math...no thank you.  Tools...uh...I have a screwdriver.  Did I mention Math?
Then there is Monty Montgomery, our stage manager, holy hannah...this man also saved the show from a tech place.  He built in the cues, runs the sound and lights, keeps track of transitions, makes sure everything is shut down.  Indispensable.  I might have been able to be taught this stuff, but I might have lost my mind if I added something else to my list.  So this is it...  Below are some pictures from tech. :)
