ellenkushner[Friday] Saw some amazing talent at Vital's KlezNut auditions today. Now, because of various schedule conflicts, the director, choreographer & I won't meet up until 8pm to make final choices ... at a mutually (in)convenient anonymous midtown Starbuck's. The Glamorous Life!
[Followup]: Most of our first picks have said yes! It's going to be a glorious, glamorous cast - all the women (except Sara) are also ballet dancers, so this year's production will feature some major toe shoe action. Swoon. The woman playing the Dreydl Princess did her kind of like a pantomime boy, very cheeky & swaggering - I'm in love! The Peacock is an amazing combo of Marilyn Monroe & Rosalind Russell, and moves like a dream - hilarious! As my director muttered to me: "She gets what you put in every line of that speech" -- "And a little extra!" I added.
First rehearsal is this Weds., and last night I turned in what I profoundly hope but greatly doubt will be my last set of revision. Performances will run Dec. 5- Jan. 3, all daytime this year, I think.
