Saturday show summary blog!!
Happy saturday. letâs begin! Still no big blog very tiredâŠ
They let actors sleep in and if you know me, you know damn well Iâm not taking advantage of that. Watched some bobs burgers before being called down. Call time was 4-5pm, but for me it was 3 cause of my hair. Those working on it spent about 2 hours on my hair redoing it multiple times. Why did i cut it offđ
I also door dashed Starbucks to my school cause I wanted to get the "honey citrus mint teaâ since it worked very well for me the show before, and so i did. Drank that and put myself on vocal rest. (It might be during worst pies or whenever i scream but like my voice keeps getting raspier and raspier and im scared im loosing it every nightâŠ)
My mommy and step dad came to the show! so did my best friend! they got stuck in traffic so they were a little late. didnât miss too much i hope. Dad still hasnât texted me back. Pretty positive he blocked me.
Now onto show time!! Was a little late on worst pies, still giggling during pirellis, took it slightly down the octave during wait cause that note is very difficult for meâŠwhen pirelli died there was no purse in the chest so i took a random hand towel and used it as the purse. Also the gin cup wasnât there for toby to drink
Beginning of act 2 was super scary. During god thatâs good my mic wasnât working so the stage manager handed me a microphone MID SONG and i legit tucked it into my bra i pray it wasnât obviousđđđimminently once god thatâs good was over, the stage manger checked on me instantly to see the mic issue and turns out it somehow unplugged. By the sea still a little messy.
Omg i will never forget this part. iâve been working on staying in character, and adding on little bits I think are canon, but today during the parlor song the fucking beadle instead of saying "ah one of mothers favoritesâ said "one of President Trumpâs favoriteâ I was just so in shock that he said that, I tried to make it obvious I wasnât laughing, so I turned my head to the side, but I think you could see me and probably hear giggling in my mic. If Iâm not wrong, it was a dare? Thatâs what the guy playing beadle said to me after the showâŠ(i hate trump btw)
The final scene went fine but there was a mini problem. So I get thrown into the oven and the choreography includes me staying there till the end of ballad of Sweeney Todd finale and our sweeney unlocks the oven that Iâm thrown into to when I sing the "but everyone does it if seldom as all.â that almost went completely wrong⊠or Sweeney mightâve thrown me into the oven a little too good cause while closing the door, my dress got caught to the door and I couldnât move for like two minutes. Thankfully I found an alternative: I asked the techies who are on "oven dutyâ to report to Sweeney to "open the door earlierâ so iâd have time to move and figure out a way to stand cause of course i the BACK of my dress was stuck. A faculty sitting in the front row saw me struggling trying to get my dress unstuckđ
Thatâs pretty much it! Tomorrow is closing night, which I donât know how to feel about. Iâve been obsessed with the show for over a year now, and one of my dream roles has been Mrs. Lovett. Itâs such an honor to be playing her. I never wouldâve thought I wouldâve been given this chance. One more show to go!
1. Long after the show was done, I was changing into PJs and I found pirellis purse my bra. I forgot to take it out. OopsâŠ
2. i took a bunch of random selfies of myself on random people's phones lying aroundđ have fun seeing that guys
