"Midnight Travellers of the Universe" - Day 7

 Before all the magic of performance day happens there is work....and lots of it!


Our ever energetic actors blocked and rehearsed and repeated over and over and over their moves, their props, their directions.



Working in the theatre with children is a special skill.  The adults need to take cues from the children and the children need to take direction from their mentors.


The lines blur when you, the actor, become you, the audience...it's all good fun!


Emote, emote, emote!



At the end of the day the sun and moon appear and all is in balance.

Here are some pics from yesterday. After a week rehearsing at El Centro Cultural, we moved for our final week to Lakeside Little Theater. We did a lot today. Abril led the kids through almost the entire show, blocking and becoming familiar with the props.
