ROADS the Musical!

Hello again!

Firstly - to reassure you, dear readers, that the pigeon is still alive, and so far has not died in our care (thank goodness)! She's much more perky, and hopefully she'll be up and about on Thursday, ready to complete her race!

I had a ROADS the Musical rehearsal today, which was slightly uplifting, slightly depressing! We are now a mixture of old cast (those that have been rehearsing for over 18 months) and new choir (a younger lot that are doing amazingly well!). The only problem is one scene that has EVERYONE on stage for an extremely long time for a musical - it's a scene that lasts about 15 minutes. Include here that there are four different dances, and all of the main characters are wandering on and off stage...basically it's a dramatic nightmare!

That's been really stressful, but one excellently good thing did come out of today - everyone now has costumes! Well, except for two extras which would have been nice, but we'll try and sort that out if we have time! It's such a relief to get it sorted, because the last thing that I wanted to do was for someone to not have a costume, or to be uncomfortable in the one that they are in. So yayness!

In other news...hopefully off to the beach tomorrow with a load of my friends. It seems like the summer has finally started, and, strangely for Britain, we are in the middle of a heatwave - brilliant!

My eye is still slightly painful, but it's definitely getting better so here's hoping that I'll be alright for results day! It's so terrifying, it's only five days away now! I got a letter in the post today from Kent University inviting me to an Open Day on the 4th - two days before results day! I'm not really sure if I can be bothered to travel there, but I could find out two days later that that's where I'll be for the next three years...scary!

So anyway, I'll keep you updated on my eye, the pigeon, the beach party, the rehearsals, the show (don't forget your tickets from http://http//www.kent.ac.uk/gulbenkian/THEATREJULY2009.html) and the all important RESULTS DAY! Scary scary!

Have a good day!
