The Boards, Wednesday Evening - Rehearsals
Wednesday, February 13th, 2013 08:38 am"This week," Jono said, once it looked as though everybody who was going to show up for rehearsals had shown up, "we're going to be working on blocking for act one. I know that's only a handful of you- Lane, Algernon, Jack, Lady Bracknell, and Gwendolyn. Up on the stage with you five. The rest of you, that's Chasuble, Merriman, Cecily, and Miss Prism, please work together on memorizing your lines."
He gestured to a spot in the audience seating that looked like a convenient enough place for people to sit and read their scripts.
"I'd like everybody to be off-book next week. Especially since spring break is coming up the week directly after. Speaking of, because we've only got a couple of weeks before the performance and I'm certain I'm going to lose most of you to whatever... thing... is going on over the break, I've been thinking of having an extra rehearsal on the evening of the third of March - that'd be the Sunday directly after whatever trip the school might have planned for you. That'll give us an opportunity to do blocking on the third act before dress rehearsal that Wednesday, and show night on the eighth. Any objections?"
He waited a moment for anybody to speak up, and then gave his hands a clap.
"Right, then. Get yourselves sorted out, and let's hammer out act one."
[Open! Script is here, cast list is here!]
