Day 22

It looks like we're planning a bank robbery in this living room. There are now four clip lights each mounted on a chair, two foot switches, notes on every wall, and a table in the middle of the room with two chairs. We've created two playing areas using the clip lights and we are using a little square table to imitate the large long banquet looking table that we'll have at the IAM space. We placed the foot switches in the places they'll be on the night and we used a lamp in the back corner to represent the house lighting.

This morning we worked out all lighting cues and we planned the journey of the table throughout the play. We could only guess at lighting cues because we didn't have all the lights yet but we promptly bought two more lights and a new foot switch to make our lighting dreams come true! We have worked out the journey of each prop at least in a rough way. Tomorrow morning we'll write out the preshow setting and type out the tech cues we've ironed out at tonights rehearsal. (Tonight we stumbled through the show and checked to see that our lighting cues would actually work. For the most part they did.) Also, we've made final changes to texts.

THIS MEANS: within the next 12 hours we will have set every detail of the show. Perhaps some small changes will occur in lighting or something like that but the point is that all we have to do is run this show as much as possible. What a great feeling. The thing is made, we just gotta execute.
