Day 28

Wow – I can’t believe we open in 3 days!  Our first official audience in previews is Wednesday for a matinee.  I am so excited.  Today – more of the same, though we did do some dance cleaning this afternoon, which seemed to help A LOT!  We did get a few more changes from Broadway, so the choreography was altered slightly.  But we managed it well.  Tonight, we had a dress rehearsal, which felt pretty good.  I think it was our first time getting from top to bottom without stopping.  Whew…  Now I’m just tired.  I wish I had more exciting news to share (I hope I don’t get too boring as the show goes on).  My head hurts a little from wearing my pin curls all day for 10 hours.  I also wear my mic in my wig, which I’ve never done before.  I think all of the added weight is tough on my neck – not terrible, but I feel it a little when I try to relax.  But I can tell you, from now on, I PREFER wearing the pack and all in my wig.  It makes costume changes a breeze, and nevermind using the restroom.  Woo hoo!  I am still missing a pair of gloves, so once I get those, I think I’ll be all set with costuming!  I am actually looking forward to opening, and I hope that Aaron finds a great “little black dress” in my closet at home.  I want to look nice for our opening night party!  For those of you that can come see the show, I hope you will.  I love this show, and I think everyone in the production is super talented.  I just can’t say better things about it!
