Comment by Taking Flight Theatre on March 23, 2010 at 10:25: Right, we have just finished the second day of rehearsals and wow, we are working very hard down in the dark and spooky basement in 10feettall! Today we created a witch, explored and cave and fell over lots of times. So far I have learnt the BSL signs for clever, handsome, gold ( I like that one), magic, and LOADS more. We have got the rough shape of about half the show and have had an extra music rehearsal with the amazing Mr Rowan Talbot who has writted all original music for the piece (and has encouraged me to knock the dust off the old recorder!) So, I'm going to get some sleep now (after ordering more flyers) and be back in 10feettall at 10 tomorrow for another JAM PACKED day. Love it!
