Biting Off More Than You Can Chew

What an absolutley top hole rehearsal tonight. It was a joy from start to finish. Here we are just three weeks away from opening night and we're still finding the script as funny and fresh as we did at the first reading, and of course this was despite the fact we were missing the brilliance of Trixie, Claire and Dora..I think the audiences are in for a real treat. The pity is of course is that you guys aren't seeing from the front all the hilarious stuff that the audience are seeing. Perhaps we should get it videoed!!

Tonight I especially loved, the choir, (Charles was very taken with Irene's suggestive actions during Cherry Ripe). I also loved Joan munching on that massive cream cake and not being able to speak properly for 5 minutes. And guys at the next rehearsal check out the wonderful off tune humming of Sybil Burlington during Daisy's solo song. It is simply priceless.... I was nearly on the floor tonight. And of course how good was Colette tonight. Knew all her lines in one week and making a great effort at the accent. What a trooper!

Finally, congratulations to Michelle on finding the Fanny she was looking for.

Well anyway, must go for my cocoa before it gets cold,

See you all Monday, have a good weekend!!
