So, yeah … I am super frustrated with the way “The Producers” is going.
Last night’s rehearsal was for choreography for the numbers in Act One. Bear in mind that “Opening Night,” “King of Broadway” and “Along Came Bialy” have all been choreographed … three weeks ago. Well, last night they spent two hours running and re-running those numbers. Meanwhile, “Keep It Gay” and “Der Guten Tag Hop Clop” still haven’t been touched. We finally got around to “Keep It Gay” about 10:00 last night. Gah!!!
I am usually not and overly fussy person when I am in a show. But considering the fact that we only have this week and one more full week before tech … I am getting a little wound up. Just seems like a lot of time is being spent “refining” things that can be worked on during a normal run of Act One as opposed to taking large amounts of time for those numbers when others haven’t even been staged.
This sucks!
‘Cause I was so excited to be get cast in the show. Now I just want it to be over.
