Today was sort of a last dress rehearsal form my show. It was also a preview. Barb and some of her modern class came to watch the show. The audience certainly laughed, but not as much as I had hoped. The casts energy was low because we didn't have time for warm ups. It was a good run just not the best audience. My cast was feeling very badly like they had let me down. I thought the show went well. I told them not to worry about anything and that they did great and it was just the audience. Also I have heard that if you have a terrible dress rehearsal you will have a wonderful opening night. Hopefully that's the case, even though things went pretty well in my book.
We are not having a rehearsal tomorrow because of my theater criticism obligations but we did decide to have one more run through before the show on Saturday. This will provide some last minute adjustments and make the actors feel comfortable and familiar with the show for opening night.
