Hi all,
I'm posting a video of some footage I took when I visited rehearsals. I saw the invited dress rehearsal the other night and am really excited about this play. I've also been at Flat Rock Playhouse opening Man of La Mancha and rehearsing their next show, Perfect Wedding, all the while. While I'm writing, I just want to say how much I appreciate Flat Rock and what they do down there. They're a wonderful, talented and dedicated group of people who run that theatre. It's a big job and they've gone through a lot this past year, losing several members of their close theatre family, including their long time resident sound designer and their Executive Director, Robin Farquhar. All within the past year. So my hat's off to them and I thank them for letting me work there and for taking such good care of me.
About this video. In it are Anne Thibault - cast, Jay Putnam - director, Bitch - cast, Connie Silver - Stage Manager. Also, I didn't really edit any of it and the language can get saucy during rehearsal so be warned.
So, enjoy the video and go see a play!

Season 09-10 Sneak Peek
Oh my goodness!!! What a busy spring! After closing A Number a month ago, we started the production process for our Rep Season which included a mammoth scheduling feat by our stage manager, Connie Silver. We're basically rehearsing, marketing and performing three full shows. The staff has been working triple time and has put up some really excellent plays.
We've also been raising money through our Help Get Us To 600 campaign and meeting with individual donors to get their input and advice on raising money more effectively.
We attended Arts Day, we participated in the NC Arts Council's grant panel, we had the immediate theatre project's production of Body Of Water, we presented a reading of the Heidi Chronicles, we hosted No Shame.
In the Flynn-McIver household we've attended weddings, funerals, end of school plays/sleepovers/parties for our kids.
To top that all off, I've started rehearsals for Man of La Mancha and A Perfect Wedding out at Flat Rock Playhouse.
But somewhere in there, we managed to pick a selection of plays for our 09-10 season. I'll get to that in a minute. But first, check out this video that our friend, Tim Carhart, shot over a couple of days while Angie and I battled it out over play titles. It's a pretty fair representation of the process that Angie and I go through while choosing a season and it's a good insight into our working relationship.
Check it out and then I'll tell you the season!
