This one...In comparison to last years production... This one ran <br />a lot smoother and for an opening night was fantastic!<br />The level of production and performance from the cast was more like you would expect for two or three shows into their run. All the kids are just so switched on and confident! Even to the point of adlibbing when something goes wrong with an orchestra cue or a misplaced prop or forgotten line...<br />I'm sure it will only get better throuought the remainder of the week. I'm really looking forward to seeing the growing professionalism in the kids...Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11021504621181130629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2459059251716959307.post-51534590957983890752013-07-25T05:32:27.977+10:002013-07-25T05:32:27.977+10:00On your clock it's 05:30 ante meridiem - that&...On your clock it's 05:30 ante meridiem - that's morning, right?

If I had the director chasing me over costumes that I had given miss upstart to finalise I would refer her directly to miss upstart as to why the job had not been completed... She soon learned that taking on the title also means taking on the responsibility to get the job done...<br /><br />I'm in relax mode as we speak...
