Rehearsals Day 29 - When will I see you again?

How did that happen?? Day 20 to Day 29? I can assure you it isn't because we HAVEN'T been rehearsing - far from it!

Let me do a quick recap - Day 20 was our "show off" for 'Destination Dance' with a wee bit of 'Hitsville USA' thrown in for good measure.

We arrived in the morning to be presented with a few props, costumes and bits of set to work with during the run - which added to the panic factor a little! But it went smoothly enough, and we had a little re-cap session with Richard at the end of the day to get our heads back into 'New York City Rhythm' which we dived back into on the following day.

Day 21 ("in the Azura House" ) onwards we carried on working with Richard putting NYCR on it's feet.

His choreography is fab, exciting and quite complex, and eminently frustrating when you can't get it right!! But it is often the case that when you let go of the stress of trying so hard to get it right, it falls into place. So once it's there, it's there :-)

Monday this week - Day 25 - was our "show off" for NYCR, which seemed to go well enough.
(Scott, Dom & Dan giving it macho!)
As these are all brand new shows, we're quite aware that there will no doubt be some changes and alterations - probably right up to the first time we perform the show for the passengers, but that's fine - all adds to the excitement.

And now? Well now we're about halfway through 'Blame It On The Boogie' which is - have you guessed yet? Yep - a whole heap of 70s!! So we're funking it up with the Bay City Rollers, The Drifters, The Nolans, The Who... you name it. All held together by Charles' multi-character DJ. I'm just looking forward to the platforms and flares... can't wait :-)
