I love rehearsing.
And yet, if somebody asks me, “Should we do it again, or are we good?”, I am the first one to say, “I’m good.”
It’s a puzzlement.
I am, if nothing, contrary.
This weekend, for the first time in literally years, I had rehearsal.
I had rehearsal for a show that was supposed to happen in February but has now been delayed until sometime in April (the good Lord (TIDBI) and Omicron willing).
I was worried on my way over to the rehearsal. I have not sung, seriously, for a very long time (the last time being at Chris and Darrick’s engagement party). What kind of shape was my voice in? (Fine, it turns out.) Could I stand for any length of time without back pain? (Yes, I can.) Would I have the necessary breath support? (Again, yes, I do.)
I did not stink up the place. I did good. I kept up.
God (TIDBI), I miss this.
Thoughts from a Fat Old Lady 
That sounds SO good – rehearsing! Yeah!
Is this a book show or a revue? Theatre or nightclub or what? It’s always so exciting to me to hear about
people working nowadays that I just want to know what & where, etc. Whatever it is, am sure you’ll kill
it out there.
It’s a fundraiser concert for South Bay Musical Theatre – a revue – in a theatre. It was supposed to be on Feb. 14 (hence, Broadway in Love); but alas, Omicron had other plans for us.
Sounds great. Special material, or a mix of that & existing songs & sketches? Hope you’re able to raise
pots of cash with it. Break a leg.
Just of mix of existing songs. No sketches (that I’m aware of) – just singing.
