hot damn i am a genius
Mar. 18th, 2009 05:29 pmSo, I want to lay out some circumstances for you, just so you understand how awesome my latest accomplishment is.
Perez & I are writing a musical. It goes up the very last weekend of May, & we need to, y'know, rehearse a significant amount of time with our three actors before then.
The SU Spring Show is called SITE, & is an evening of six new short plays. I am in two of them, & am SMing a third. Kacey is in two. Robert is in one. Kacey is in the same one Robert's in, but that is the only overlap. Each of these shows rehearses a few times a week, for a few hours each. All of our actors have class or work nearly every day until 4pm, so day-time rehearsal is not an option. SITE opens mid-May, which means there's a week where we pretty much disappear into tech & can't rehearse. Plus we have a drummer who usually has class until 6 or 8pm every night.
Nevertheless. Nevertheless, ladies & gents, I somehow managed to put together a draft rehearsal & tech schedule that I don't think will kill anyone (except possibly myself, & I can handle it), & still gives us over 60 hours of rehearsal. For serious. For a 15-minute musical, that's not too shabby.
Not only that? We have Saturdays off until tech! Man, I'm good.
...of course getting all high-&-mighty proud over creating a schedule is about the geekiest thing ever, but whatever. I can live with that. :D
