BLESSED SUNDAY NIGHT
We have all survived tech for Ragnarok! I am impressed. & it actually went pretty smoothly, which was wonderful. Saturday Perez & I got there early & Casey met us (god bless Casey)...he helped us hang up the crossbeam in the back, which absolutely would have been the worst part if it wasn't for him & his knowledge of clamps & chains. We hung curtains, many of them, which made my arms hurt (curtains are heavy) and my nose get all dusty. Hannah came & found some lights & hung them, & Damian came (& left & came back when we called, confused) & helped us with the old, old, persnickety light board and channels. We focused lights and set rugs down & laid out all the drums & got everything all squared away.
Of course it was all more exhausting than that sounds, but we got it done, by 5pm.
Today the actors came--we set levels, which was a lot of me stopping the show & yelling at Hannah to change the levels on the mics even though the poor girl is back there doing lights already. Then we played with makeup, which is always fun, & did some run-throughs. Swanson came to play drums for sound levels (Paige being at Sasquatch) & then I made him sit in the audience & take sound notes, since I was back in the booth by this point, manually changing all the mic levels.
We will probably have to do more fine-tuning once Paige gets back, but everything is looking really good.
Guys....we have a totally badass rock musical here. It's SO COOL. Look for adverts here, probably on Tuesday. This is gonna be rad.
