The Rivals are Rehearsing!!

Rehearsals for the next adult workshop performance of Sheridan's 'The Rivals' are now underway. Despite some initial doubts about a shortage of suitable men (a common complaint!!!) we seem to have a close-to-full cast and everyone has slotted nicely into their characters. So far, so good. Due to some very gentle arm-twisting and veiled threats, we have some brand-new, never-seen-before performers who may be the stars of the future!!! We are enjoying rehearsals immensely and seem to find double-entendre and insinuation in every scene, and malapropism has taken on a new meaning!!! We will be looking for some help with set-building and painting later on, but cannot make a start on this until the Junior production has finished at the end of March. So it will be a busy 6 weeks leading up to the 4 performances on Wednesday 16th to Saturday 19th May. (Put these dates in your diary.) Anyone at all who is interested in helping out nearer the time, please add a comment to this blog and leave an e-mail address, or e-mail me directly on gil@persilands.com
We would be grateful for as much help as possible, even if you have never done anything like this before. In the meantime, we're gonna keep on rehearsin' and hope to bring you an unforgettable show!!!
