The last rose withers… time is running out…

Hour GlassWell that's us just two weeks aways from opening night, and everything is gathering momentum for the big performance week.  Stage and sets are being constructed, costumes prepared and of course the cast are busy memorising those tricky bits of dialogue! (How many different ways can I say that line wrong!?)

It has to be said that there's a certain excitement rising throughout the whole club - as well as perhaps a mild sense of panic as the last polish is applied to those lines, songs and dances.  No one wants to be up there on stage with the "startled bunny" expression come opening night.  So we're all going at it to rehearse, rehearse, rehearse in order to put on the best show for all of our supporters out there.

On that note, it's worth mentioning that tickets have been selling like hot cakes as usual.  You'll see on the right hand side that availability is now getting very limited on most nights, and the Saturday matinée performance sold out a while back.  So if you haven't booked your tickets yet, don't delay - we'd hate for you to miss out because you didn't get your tickets in time!

It's not just about the actors…

Artistic EndeavoursEvery time we put on a show, the audience comes to see the performers on the stage.  But without the costumes, lights, sound and wonderful sets and scenery, I'm sure you'd agree that the shows wouldn't really be quite the same.

There's a whole raft of people who work tirelessly behind the scenes to make clothes and outfits, to design and paint amazing backdrops and props, to build intricate scenery mechanisms for special effects, and also to organise, cajole, instruct and guide on all the myriad of things that need to be done for the show to even get off the ground.  Not only are there all those creative types who make and build, but there's also the people who help organise the administration of everything, from buying rights to scripts and music, to organising and selling the tickets!

Culter Theatre club is always looking for new people to become part of the club - even if standing up on stage in front of a few hundred people several nights in a row isn't quite your thing, there are so many more opportunities for you to get involved.  So don't think you have to be the extrovert out there on stage, just get in touch with us if you want to get involved and help out in other ways too!

Two weeks to perfect those dance moves…

As usual, we're now into the October school holidays, and rehearsals pause for a couple of weeks.  So Thursday last week was our last one, and we ran through all the song and dance routines we've learned so far.

Rehearsals Underway

That doesn't mean that we all go away and forget about panto for a fortnight though.  The cast all have their homework assignments - to practice, practice, practice the songs and dances for the show!  And not only that, but for all the principals to have memorised the scripts for when we get back.

So everyone will be hard at work over the next couple of weeks, and when we get back together we'll all be word - and foot - perfect! (Well there's always a first time! :)
