The Boards - Rehearsal - Thursday, 2/2

[suit-of-sables.livejournal.com]

Geoffrey opened the doors, rather proud of all the work he'd done this week. After all, the place was clean. Entirely clean. Clean and fixed and all right, maybe he had to rehang the curtain, but he figured he might ask one of the kids who could fly or something to do that since he had really terrible luck with ladders usually.

You here?

Some folks like to get away, take a holiday from the neighborhood...

Off Stage

Hop a flight to Miami Beach, or to Hollywood.

Ender had his script, and he was paging through it leisurely as he nibbled on a muffin. They were theatre tradition, and he didn't really care enough about the taste to bother to extend himself.

Jack ... wasn't in the mood for a muffin today.

Stranger things have happened.

He took some coffee, though, and nursed it as he flipped through the script. His character was dead in the act being rehearsed this week, which made for a rather easier workload.

At some point during rehearsal, a note was expertly bounced off of Jack's head to land in his lap:

You startled me, and I reacted poorly. Coffee next week, my treat?

It wasn't signed, but it didn't really need to be. Jack would probably recognize the author's handwriting.

Emma was perfectly happy with drinking her soda and reading her script during scene three, which was one of the few moments she wasn't onstage during this act.

Priestly was there. Priestly had sandwiches. All was right with the world.

Mmmmm, muffins. After a week of illness Robin had an appetite that allowed him to eat two whole muffins. Though he might regret it later.

Karla was very much not with it today. Most of her attention was back in the clinic, puzzling over what happened to Raven. There was a slow burn of anger there, too, mostly covered by her concern and worry, but not quite.

Sam didn't know whether or not to be grateful that there were scenes he wasn't in today. He had time to sit backstage and work on memorizing his lines, but that was also time that had to be spent trying to resist the urge to scratch his arms and hope no one noticed the chocolate smell.

Sophie was quietly sipping her coffee, and making notes on her lines.

Jack was absently eating a muffin, muttering his lines to himself as he read his script.

Ender got up on stage eventually, running himself through some of the more monologue-heavy ends of his part in the act.

"You cloudy princes and heart-sorrowing peers,
That bear this mutual heavy load of moan,
Now cheer each other in each other's love
Though we have spent our harvest of this king,
We are to reap the harvest of his son..."

He underlaid his tone with some irony; there was some disguised threat in this, after all.

Re: Rehearsal - Act 2

[glacial_queen]

Karla wasn't at her best today. While she had the tone of concern and heart-sick with worry down pat, her attention was pretty clearly elsewhere.

"My pretty cousins, you mistake me, ummm, much;
I just, err, do lament the sickness of the king.
As loath to lose him, not your father's death;
It were lost sorrow to wail one that's lost."

Re: Rehearsal - Act 2

[icecoldfrost]

Emma had large sections of this act memorized, but nowhere near perfectly, so she did have script in-hand while she was onstage.

"Ay me, I see the downfall of our house!
The tiger now hath seized the gentle hind;
Insulting tyranny begins to jet
Upon the innocent and aweless throne:
Welcome, destruction, death, and massacre!
I see, as in a map, the end of all."

Harper was there, ready to pitch in with any tasks that needed to be done.

That is, anything not involving ladders.

Tony had coffee in one hand and a script in the other as he went through the pages, making notes on what props and sets they still needed to acquire.

I don’t have any reasons, I’ve left them all behind...
