Hey, blogettes! There are two more weeks until we go public with our musical, "Hello Dolly", and there is a whole bun of work that needs to be done still that the show might not be the best show ever because we ran out of time. To tell you how far behind we are, the main set has not been built yet, people haven't tired on costumes or got their costumes in line, and we are still blocking out some seasons instead of rehearsing them like it is the show. It is now go time since we only have two weeks to get things down and ready, and I still have hope that some how we are going to be winners who come from behind, and that this will be the best show yet. It will take practice outside of practice but that is what it takes when it comes to show biz is overtime.
When I am not busy at musical practices I am going to be shooting a vlog for you to enjoy, doing my homework, practicing my parts to make sure that I personally have it down, and sleeping, I might practice the stunt that scares the living daylight out of me if my partner feels up to doing it with me and isn't busy with things. We give a preview and it sounds like the scene that my stunt is in is the preview, and that is going to make me super scared because something could go wrong in front of my friends, and the little kids and then they would be scared, and I would be embarrassed. For that reason I hope that they pick a different scene to do that has me in it, so I can miss out on a little bit of class, and not have to watch the show because I've seen it like a million times at practice.
Since there is a lot to be done they have even scheduled things to be done for the weekend, and they have made the practices longer which would allow me to do the things noted above because they are going to run the full scenes, and act like it is kind of the show now, so that we have an idea of what it will be like and where our cues are at. That means that break time will be longer, and I love longer break times because those are the times where you can start something and finish it, and not be hanging on it and then be lost when you get back from being on stage. These next few practices are going to be hit and miss because they are going to have people who need costumes, and aren't on stage at the time go and try on costumes, and they will have some people be building sets, and doing stuff like that.
We will get things done, because we have been on a tight schedule before, and it is nothing that we can't handle because we can and we will do just fine. The directors aren't freaking out yet, either, because they have just made plans to help make sure that we are ready and everything is ready for the show. It has got to be a lot of stress directing a show with a bunch of wild teens, but they handle it quite well. It's also better when they get us into character on stage because then we all are more calm focused, and manageable more so when we are our normal selves. We are crazy then, and the most randomest of things to talk about just seem to pop up. I guess it is because we are all tired, and have tons of homework that overshadows us from being us, and we just want to take some time when we are hanging out with the rest of the drama people to be ourselves and just chill for a bit.
I'd be cool with doing a stunt but my older sister was dropped on her head during practice when she was doing the pretty much same stunt I was supposed to do, and that is why I am worried that will happen to me. Except for she was a piggy back stunt and I am a shoulder piggy back stunt so I am up just a little bit higher from the ground in the stunt than she is, which makes it all the more scary, because I saw her fall, and what happened, and trust me, I would hate that to have happened to me. My sister also got to be blind folded when doing that stunt so she can't see what is coming. I however, see every detail and feel every detail, and it is super scary. Then when you get up on the shoulders you are like wow this isn't so bad after all and you enjoy it, and then you have to get down which isn't as scary as getting up but scary just the same.
I guess this is what it is going to be like and that this is show biz, and that who knows I might be a flyer if I am a cheerleader so I need to get used to doing stunts. If things go wrong things go wrong. No big deal because mistakes do happen we just learn from them and make changes so that it doesn't happen again. Anyways if you are from the area check our school's homepage calendar for the dates of the shows so that you can come out and show your support for your fellow classmates. That's all I have to say for today, thanks for reading this post, and sorry that it was all about the show, but that was the only thing that I had enough details on to get a decent sized post written. Be sure to vote, and then you will be seeing some of those posts pop up as well.
