Lion in Winter, and some other stuff.
Aug. 1st, 2004 06:17 pmFirst, I got to see
navrins and
chanaleh in the Occasional Players production of The Lion In Winter.
I assume other members of the cast also have livejournals, but I don't know what they are. But
greenlily was the stage manager.
Was extremely cool. All of you who didn't go to see it last night, or the night before, and who didn't go the the full dress rehearsal on Thursday night, well, you missed a really good performance of a really good play.
FINDING the play was maybe a bit of a trick -- it was in an auditorium in the basement of a church, down past the homeless shelter. I was reminded a bit of Arthur Dent and the display of the highway bypass plans, but we found it well enough, as did enough other people to pretty well fill up the audience.
A resourceful stage crew managed to put together a minimalist set that managed to be emotionally evocative, to distinguish a dungeon from a bedchamber from a feasting hall, and to be able to be broken down and taken out of the church in fifteen minutes flat after the curtain came down.
Other than that, my Dad gave us this computer which I'm currently typing at. It's up and running! Yay!
Also, I'm still sore-throaty enough that I'm not sleeping more than a couple hours a night.
