The Boards, Thursday [Rehearsal]

[oncourtandstage.livejournal.com]

Most of the apricots had been removed by the time Thursday's rehearsal came around, but there was still a bowl piled high with the fruit alongside the usual pitchers of lemon water. … And a couple of boxes backstage if anyone wanted to take more.

Please take more.

"So, today we're going to work on Hoyt's introduction to start with," Troy explained, "which is the song Sweet Transvestite, and then work our way up through to Petey's big number, Sword of Damocles. This includes the part where Lad and Garnet are stripped down to their underwear -- but I think we'll hold off on that until we get a little further into rehearsals."

Yes. Stripped to their underwear. Troy really hoped that the cast knew what kind of show it was by now, but if they didn't...

"I reserve the right," Jono intoned, "to mock anybody who is surprised by that revelation by this point in rehearsals."

Because that was Jonothon's idea of useful input.

Troy laughed. "Yeah, what he said," he agreed. "So, before we get started, any questions?"

Magic Box, Thursday, 2/9

[life_inshadow]

Tara had to spend much of her morning on the phone, fighting with a distributor.

"No, see, we, um ... we can't use willow bark when it's fermented." Pause. "Well, but then it's just aspirin. No, I don't want a discount on my next order!"

Refund finally secured, she sighed and flopped into the seat behind the counter. This stuff stressed her out.

Pixie Dust [afternoon sorority meeting]

[rilla-myrilla.livejournal.com]

The girls had been handwavily notified to meet at Pixie Dust (with a handy map attachment included for anyone who might be too new to know where it was) for today's meeting. Because it would be bad to have a meeting and forget to tell people where.

"Hey, everyone! With Valentine's Day next week and the dance this weekend- and I hope you all stopped by the table and bought your tickets-" Annie was not above a shameless plug, no. "-and we thought we could spend today doing a little preparation."

Rilla nodded enthusiastically. Dress shopping was always fun! “Styles might have changed drastically from where or when you originally come from, but it never goes out of fashion to be tastefully dressed for a formal occasion.”

Which meant she’d be judging bare shoulders and a lot of knees showing, just FYI.

Right, don't dress like a strumpet. "So today we're going to spend time in the store, and if you need help you have plenty of support here," Annie went on. "Even if you're not planning on going to the dance and don't need to get anything, it's fun to just look around and try things on, right?"

“Right!” Rilla squealed. “And they have really good bargains in the back of the shop if your dollar doesn’t go quite as far as it did in 1914...”

Just to pull a year out of thin air.

Caritas, Thursday evening (2/9)

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

Kenzi was not sleep-deprived; there were no creepy dolls. She had new stuff for her room, and a date for a dance.

Therefore, it was completely acceptable to be making more Jell-O shots tonight to celebrate.
