I am currently rehearsing TSF's new collaborative show Islands, which opens at the Queen's Hall, Hexham on the 22nd April. Rehearsals are going well; my hours are 1.30 - 10 most days. Its the first time i've done late(ish) shifts and I like them a lot. It wasn't so long ago I was a student doing fairly similar hours!! Although it's amazing how quickly I'd settled into a 9 - 5 routine!
I've been helping the production manager, the great Craig Davidson, gather props and costumes, order set parts, and generally bring the technical side of the show together. It has been fun...I've made contacts in the south Scottish milk industry, discovered the wonders of Oxfam's online shop and observed the rigorous and thorough work the cast and director do. During the show I will be manning the sound desk and the projection of video.
Today I went to pick up Juan Belda, the composer, from Newcastle airport. He has just arrived from Madrid and we had a very nice talk on the way back to Hexham. I can see I'm going to get lots of opportunities to speak more spanish in the coming weeks!! YAY!!!
hasta luego
Jack
