Week 3 of Previews

First of all, a new video about Frankenstein that I just found today, from Broadway Beat.

The most major changes have gone into the show. Some pretty big rewrites, and completely new orchestrations (which will continue to be added to and tweaked). The plan is for the show to be frozen tomorrow (Friday). The things we're working on now are some tweaks in the more tech-heavy sequences, putting music into the curtain call, that kind of thing. After today's rehearsal we have only one more 4-hr slot tomorrow afternoon to finish whatever is going to be done before the show is frozen.

We had another day off a couple days ago, and for the third time in a row, I did absolutely nothing. My body has been hurting in various places since tech, and I have been trying to get enough rest so as not to make it worse with each additional day's work.

Once we get to the point where we don't have rehearsals every day I think I may be able to rest and also accomplish something. Freezing the show and opening isn't exactly the end of all that, as we go full-force into understudy rehearsals right away because we have some planned absences coming up in the week after opening. But someday, eventually I think I may set foot someplace besides my apartment, 37 Arts, the Starbucks on 39th/8th, and the bar at the Zipper.
