Monday:
After just getting back from rehearsals I need to mention that with two weeks to go the actor playing Hermes has decided he does not want to carry on with the show. The director and writer are very confident we are going to find another actor to play the part. It will probably have to be a Professional actor. We will make it a better show as long as we all pull together and be a stronger team. The Show will Go on!!
Theatre is a lot about problem solving with small things of working out where it is best for a particular actor to stand to a large issue of losing an actor two weeks before the show will go on but with dedication something always comes up and problems are resolved. Big or Small. I also got Hera's measurements as it was the first chance to get hold of them.
Tuesday:
Tonight Stephen has found a new actor to play Hermes. He seems perfect for the part but couldn't start until Thursday so will be able to see what he is like. I have been mostly concentrating on Hermes blocking to make sure it will be easy for him to pick up.
Thursday:
Tonight I prompt as I feel I have all the blocking written down. I also helped one of the costume designers get all the measurements for each actor apart from Aphrodite, as she is away until Tuesday. The measurements I had got before were not really good enough.
Friday:
I helped out with Costume today. Went out sourcing parts of costumes for Hermes and Paris. Only came out with a shirt but took some photos of other possibilities.
