2012 - The Year of Saturday Night and Sunday Morning

Ay up ducks!!

Well...it's been a little while...but we are OFF!! Rehearsals have well and truly started. The ensemble songs sound epic!! Truly.

Arthur (Tom) has started with Sarah (the director) working with the three ladies Brenda (Kate), Winnie (Nic) and Doreen (Amanda). So far it has included a lot of 'ducks' and snogging. But it is great to start working on it.

It is a really well written piece, both musically and script..ually?? You know what I mean! It feels great.

Tom and Kate were discussing the difficulty in making the dialogue sound and be authentic...it is such honest dialogue that it can easily sound forced. This, is something that comes with time and rehearsals and experimentation! The accents are coming on - but surprisingly tough even though we are from Nottingham!

The rehearsal venue is so nice too, big kitchen, nice and warm - pub opposite!! Of course!!

We really need the support of Nottingham's people to get this show moving and get it sold - it really is a showcase and if anyone knows of any sponsorship opportunities then please contact us!!

Tomorrow it's Arthur and Winnie's scene rehearsals which basically involves raunchiness of differing kinds.

Tickets are available now www.nottinghamplayhouse.co.uk

Ta ducks!!!
