Trust me, you'll hear all about it. I feel sorry for the poor people who are reading my rehearsal diary on my LJ. (Those who haven't given up by now, that is)

I had a little look at livejournal.com today, some of those people are insane though.

Have you read Cassandra Claire's LJ? She writes these LOTR diaries, it's the funniest thing ever. Ooops, OT, sorry.

I haven't really had much chance to look at the TTT ones, though. From what I've seen, they aren't quite as good, I thought. ~Julia

Talissa,

Are you starting to panic yet?

Opening night is 5 nights away. I assume that this week is all the technical rehearsals and dress rehearsals.

I'm getting all excited for you! I wish I could get to see the show, but that's life

Break a leg!

Oh yes, I've been right through panic and out the other end. I've stressed about every one of the leads at some point, and every time I sneeze, I'm paranoid I'm catching something.

It's amazing how quickly it goes from "okay, we have a couple of weeks left" to "help!!! we're opening next friday!!!"

And yes, dress rehearsals every night this week except tonight. Sleep's going to have to wait.

Oh wow, I'm so excited/jealous! I didn't realise it was so close, you must be tired, if you yell at us we'll ignore it.

In 5 days I'll be in the middle of my exams, I'd give anything to be onstage in Les Miserables instead.

Good luck, have a ball! And try and sleep, sure, you won't get alot of it...but try all the same.

It's amazing how much of a routine you get into doing a show, and how much sleep you can do without!

My routine was:
Get up as late as possible to be at work at 8:30am
Work to 5pm
Go home, eat tea or grab 30 mins sleep
Get to the theatre (eat tea if slept before)
Do show
Go home, at 11:45pm-12am
Start again

That was my life for three weeks.

Madame Thenardier had it worse. She is a radio announcer on the local station and did the morning shift! She would get home at 12am then had to be up at 5:30am to get to work on time. She did sleep during the afternoons when time allowed

I won't even have time to go home after uni, because the bus to the theatre takes over an hour from my house.

I don't mind, though. As Eowyn said, it's Les Mis. And even if it was another show, it would still be music, theatre, musical theatre...I thrive on music. It's what keeps me alive and sane...okay, maybe just alive *g*

And the crazy thing? I think I'd happily do it all over again next season (now, see if you can pick the indirect musical quote there

)
