YTG Updates:

Jekyll and Hyde Mainstage

  • Two rehearsals since last update
  • I got sick from whatever Hammy had, so I missed Thursday’s rehearsal because I took him to the doctor and then was feeling too crap to even attend the rehearsal on Zoom.
    • The group came to an agreement on the central theme of “revolution”
  • On Monday, Mike had everyone vote on story structure, which, even at four weeks out from the show
    • Group voted on “montage” (except me)
    • Spent the afternoon working on scenes that I’d brought in
  • I love working with Mike: we have very different sensibilities and preference
  • Wednesday, we had a morning meeting at Kawasaki Starbucks
    • Discussed the assignment of roles
    • I have delegated a bunch of the stage manager and box office roles to other members in the group
    • I suggested that to give the show more focus I be the world builder (based on the three worlds we’ve previously created on the technical days)
    • Adrianna wanted to borrow a guitar so she came back with me after the meeting
      • Needed to talk to her anyway because of the Art Present assignment
      • Got my own guitar out for the first time in ages and WOW, have really lost a lot of that guitar playing muscle memory
      • I need time to practice
  • Found a new ticketing provider!
    • Seemed perfect!
    • They have a problem with their yen transactions
    • Service fees are calculated incorrectly
    • They are taking forever to fix it
  • Going into the theatre today (in the future as of this recording, probably in the past as you listen to this)
    • Giving up our Thursday rehearsal to do a clean u[
    • Building owners pulling back from “big clean up” to “little clean up”, which is depressing
    • At least we’ll organize cables, adapters, tools, and booth
