ONE MORE REVIEW COMING

The Aisle Say review of Sweeney is coming soon. Since they haven't posted it on--line yet, I feel iffy about posting it here, but it should be up soon and as soon as it does I'll put the link here. The show is going great. Tonight we had a lot of actors in the audience and it was great to see them come out and support our show. We've had a couple of great shows these past two nights and I'm looking forward to tomorrow's matinee and then of course a bit of vocal rest. You know, it's a funny thing, getting older. When I was younger I could sing in a show, go out and have fun and still have a voice to sing with the next day. With this show, none of that can happen. I have learned the importance of rest, both physical & vocal. I never realized how intricate & difficult the vocal demands of this show are. It's all about the music and doing the best to accommodate Sondheim's complex time signatures, rhythms and phrasing. Not to mention astronomical high notes. I wish I had Monday-Wednesday off, but I have to attend rehearsals for the show at Cañada. Like my friend Linda says "No rest for the wicked!"
