Jan Davis teaches the Monday/Wednesday/Friday cast the blocking for to Act I |
The pro is that I'd have a really cool record of the whole thing. The con is that sometimes stuff goes on that other people don't need to know about (difficult directors, cast members who don't get along, etc) and my cast and production mates probably wouldn't appreciate me sharing with everyone.
But what if I were just to write two or three things about each rehearsal? Or even just each week (in which case, I wouldn't have to create a whole new blog that I'm stressed to keep up regularly)?
Would anyone be interested in something like that? For Earnest or for some other show I do in the future? Anything in particular you'd want to know about? Would you want to read about stuff that happens or learn more about backstage/theater stuff in general?
The Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday cast waits for our turn to work the scene |
Then again, when has potential incomprehensible-ness ever stopped me from posting anything before?
What do you think? Yay or nay?

I think you should tell ALL the stories worth telling, whenever they are ready to be told. If you try to purposefully chronicle a show, I think it will end up sounding forced. Just my take. :)
Thanks, Andrea. I appreciate the honesty and good sense! You're right that the chronicle might sound forced after awhile... I'll keep doing what I've been doing :)
I'd love to hear about your experiences (and I love The Importance of Being Earnest). You'll also have a great record for yourself of what you've done.
I appreciate your input, Karrie. I love this play, too! I've been keeping a daily record of the goings-on, but I think I'll just post the more interesting/bizarre stories. I want to keep a balance between blog posts. So glad you're interested. I'm totally jealous you've been in multiple productions and played a couple of different roles!
