Directing “It Happened One Night at the Opera”
I have the privilege of directing a brand-new musical written and composed for full orchestra by my friend Joseph S. Fuoco. Rehearsal began in November while I was working on Nanowrimo, and is moving along very well.
This week we got a better rehearsal space, one of the stages we will be performing on in February and March, so I get ‘the big picture’ much easier and can make adjustments as necessary. This is the part of rehearsal I love! Lines are down, blocking is down, now to inject it with greater and greater life and interest. Its so satisfying to watch my actors develop and see the show come alive!
