Dance Production is over!!
And I'm seriously not being biased, but I thought the production itself was pretty good-- the acting was all right, but I thought the dances were what really made the $18 and $25 tickets worthwhile.
Shazzy's mum even messaged her during the intermission to say "Bravo, worth paying", and all the Wardrobe girls cheered. :D
Then again, Shazzy's mum knew that she was in Wardrobe and after the seeing the beautiful dresses that we'd sewn for Sera and Claudine's dance, you'd have to say that our Wardrobers are pretty damn good. Not to mention that there's only *ELEVEN* of us sewing costumes for about SEVENTY dancers, most of whom are involved in more than one dance, so that makes it *at least* a hundred and forty costumes we had to make..?!??
Whoa. We rock. Hehe.
Here're some pictures that I took tonight:
Everyone at work. Thank goodness on the night itself we weren't left with too much to do. Or else we'd really be in trouble.
The um.. speaker of doom. The PA system is connected throughout the entire backstage area-- two floors worth of rooms and corridors: our floor which extends out from behind the stage, and the basement where the dancers' dressing rooms and access to the orchestra pit were. During rehearsals for the last two days, we'd constantly be hearing things like "Paging for all dancers" or "Paging for all actors; report to the stage now".
During rehearsals, the PA system also let us hear exactly what was happening on stage. And on the night itself, we heard things like: "Everyone, the doors are open and the audience is streaming in," "Actors, please be ready, we're starting in 5 minutes time," and "Dancers for the first dance, please be ready at backstage now."
You can probably see how the speaker might make us panic; we were just hoping that Wardrobe wasn't paged for to do anything drastically last-minute.
Now I'm just hoping that they'll release a DVD of the performance or something; I really wanna see it!! :D
