Anything Goes opens at 7.30 tonight. Wish me luck!
Apparently we got a mention on Elaine Paige's radio show yesterday - she does a round-up of some of the shows that are on - which is pretty cool! Of course, she has done Anything Goes a lot (and with JB) so it's probably of personal interest to her.
Dress rehearsal yesterday was long (I was out of the house from 11.30 am to 7 pm!) and not great but not terrible either. It was our first (only) rehearsal with the band and it was really, really wonderful having a whole band, especially the brass for this style of music. Lifted the whole thing.
So now I'm getting all nervous, though fortunately I have Jack to look after, not to mention housework to do, so it's not like I've got time to fret about it, not if I want to get my writing done too...
And for those who are waiting, Master Plan is still going ahead at an average rate of about 400 words a day (6,254 words total as of now) and I'm heading towards the end, first draft-wise. Then I've got to go back and connect it all up etc. etc. So I'm not making any promises about when you'll see it, but it shouldn't be forever and a day, at least! :-)
(ETA: Apparently my email is going to be down for maintenance from 22:00 tonight for 'up to 16 hours' - so if you want to get hold of me, either do it before then, or post it here!)
