Rehearsing Robin Hood

Previews and Spanx

November 21, 2011

So we have done two previews so far. I am really enjoying doing the show, the company are fantastic and we all are together in telling our story. We just have to keep listening and bringing our enjoyment in telling the story to the audience and everything will follow.

On our first preview and our first dress rehearsal my trousers in the pond scene ended up around my ankles -revealing my highly flattering beige 'Spanx' knickers. So I was completely soaking wet with my pants down on stage... All I could do was... continue. Many thanks to Darri for not loosing it and keeping a relatively straight face, if he had gone I think I would have. We got a little round of applause upon our exit!
