Yeah. I am directing another show … and the auditions for “Floyd Collins” are Monday and Tuesday of next week!!!
I am gonna freely admit that this one has totally snuck up on me. Last year I had “Cabaret” all planned out before auditions even started. With “Floyd Collins” things still seem all up in the air with audition being next week. The set design is still in the discussion stages. I don’t have a clue how I am gonna block the damn show. I like to feel organized and on top of things and I don’t feel that way right now. Organization is key to make sure that your rehearsals run as smooth and stress free as possible. The one thing that has been decided for sure is that the Music Director (Chuck) will take the first three weeks of rehearsal just for music and will will begin blocking around the first of September. “Floyd Collins” will run weekends October 3 -19.

Sooooooo …. yeah. No show for me to direct.
If only there was a musical adaptation of THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE or THE HOST (which I think would make a fabulous musical).
Is the poster yours? Nice.
