Exciting Weekend
Well, faithful readers, it was a big weekend for The Distracted Globe. We closed a great production of Much Ado About Nothing to truly wonderful audiences (we expect you all to return in July for Hay Fever… and bring that incredibly enthusiasm… we loved it!). Saturday’s peformance had a little something special - our Hero (Chelsea) was ill and unable to perform, so assistant director Jennifer went on in her place. Understudy performances are always a thrill. More of a thrill, however, was when Chelsea braved the sickness to return for the last performance on Sunday. And a stunning performance it was. What a trooper!
We also had two performances by The Midnight Hags of Suddenly Macbeth. And, though we may all be cursed for life now… it was an awful lot of fun. From chickens and Feng Shui to scoliosis and child-stealing gypsies… well… we managed to graze the surface of the text and explore all kinds of fun stuff - that may have, in some way, perhaps been associated loosely and based informally on Macbeth. Whatever. It was fun.
And now, rehearsals for Hay Fever kick into high gear. See you in July!!! (Well… we’ll see you in blog form before then… but you know what I mean.)
