Snow White Rehearsals - Week One

Hahahaha, wow! Rehearsals for Snow White are SO crazy! We only have 8 days to pull this show together and it has already been 4 days! Aaaaaaa! I think it'll turn out great in the end, but it still seems a little crazy! :)

Playing dead is alot harder than you might think! When I'm supposed to be dead it seems like an age for the dwarfs to decide what happened and how I died. Once they realize the apple was what done me in...they have to pick me up off the ground and place me on a bench where I lay until the Prince comes. The hardest thing isn't the staying still part...but keeping a straight face! Oh my goodness!! But I'm working on it, and hopefully when it comes to an actual performance, I'll be so caught up in the moment, I won't even have to worry about any of that. :)

Anyways, we add costumes Monday and props on Tuesday. We also have to have all of our lines memorized by Tuesday as well! This is such an exciting experience and I cannot wait to see how it all turns out!!

Costumes are always my favorite part! I'm pretty excited to see them too! And I'll bet it costumes will help everyone to stay in character better too (me included)! :)

They are fun! I think you are right. You feel like the character if you are dressed like it. =)

For sure! :) Oooo I was thinking...we should line up all the snow whites (me, you, Emily, and the babydoll and get some funny pictures after a dress rehearsal or performance! That would be lots of fun! :)

that is a great idea!! We definitely need to do that! The baby doll will make it that much more funny.
