Show Day :D February 4, 2011

Friday, February 4, was the most hectic day of the week. It was full of technical problems. All of the dancers spent the day in the auditorium working, teching, and rehearsing the show. We ran through the show with costumes and took notes again while we were not dancing. Before we started rehearsal, Ms. Mack finished up the program and sent it off to be printed. We split into groups to clean up the auditorium before we started. After warming ourselves up, we ran through pieces that Ms. Mack had not seen the day before and Hana and I taped down the masonite on the back of the stage. After that was done, we started a run through of the whole show. When we got to the senior piece, Ms. Mack put on a new song for it since we did not like the other music and it did not fit the piece. The new music worked out a lot better.

After we came back from lunch, we started a dress rehearsal of the entire show. After we finished the first run, we sat down and gave each other our notes that we had. When we started the second run, the lightboard started malfunctioning and kept turning off. Ms. Mack had someone go get yoga mats from the studio for her to sit on to absorb her electricity. The rest of the run through went without technical difficulties. When 3:30 came, we did not get to finish the second run through of the show.

When we got back from our dinner break, we had until 5:00 to be on the stage with foundational make up on. We did a full warm up and went to finish getting ready. When it came time for the show, it was a little noisy backstage. But other than that, the show seemed to go pretty well.
