before

workshop

The first session of the new year. It feels like we haven't seen everybody for much longer than the few weeks it's been in fact, and we met quite a lot of them in the pub just before new year anyway. But it's nice to catch up.

The session afterwards was good too, we seem to be racing through blocking in big sections very quickly which is enjoyable. I think the effect of the project we did before Christmas has made everybody realise that you can do stuff much quicker than we usually do.

This project will stretch us though. We have to sing and dance - a challenge for some of us - and also deliver a wide range of emotions from bawdy Music Hall humour to tragic poignancy, sometimes within the same scene.
