Resurfacing

One of the advantages of having a large production team, is that is allows individuals to disapear from view for periods without leaving a huge gap. The Bench February show "Four Nights in Knaresborough" closed last week, meaning that several people involved in HDM have been resurfacing during the last few days, including Damon (our director) and Martin (our Will) - two pretty important people! However work has not stopped since Christmas, and when the show goes on it will owe a strong debt to the people who have been making a start on their own portfolio of tasks, holding meetings and making sure that we stand some chance of having everything organised in time for opening night. Just keeping track of who has committed to do what, and whether it gets done, is no small feat.
The start of rehearsals is an exciting time for everyone, not just those who will appear on the stage, and the rest of us should be enthused by Nathan's positive reports.
(I am glad to hear that Nathan thinks Charley is a believable youngster; at the auditions I accused her of being under 16 and have not quite recovered from the embarassment!)
