Tech Day 2

End of day two of tech. Technically the crisis of today was that the Cal Shakes computer crashed about 90 minutes into rehearsal, meaning that everything we had worked on up until that point was lost – but still, at the end of the day, we all feel pretty good, and our 1:30 PM frets seem like they happened weeks ago. Still, we’re currently running off of our own computers – but perhaps that will all be cleared up in the morning – we teched in the afternoon for 4 hours on a tiny amp we found – you’ve never seen anything as silly as me and the sound designer standing near a tiny amp talking about which warner brothers cues sound best. Well, maybe you have. There is one 30 seconds of the show that we teched for over 2 hours – which means it will be brilliant or we’ll cut it on Tuesday – maybe both. We’ll see.

Must go sleep – tomorrow we’re rigging the 20-foot marionette in the morning. Yeah!
