"Something Wicked" (rehearsal) – from the basement…
Aug 25, 2025
Occasionally, mostly on Saturday mornings, the only venue available for rehearsal is the basement of one of the cast members. Terrible lighting, no real vantage points, less room. In a three hour period, I can shoot over eight hundred exposures and wind up keeping less than forty, only to end up using two or three. But then again, it is rehearsal – and I gain much needed familiarity with the show.
The opening shot here shows April, James and Caleb working on their dark-side demeanor. Katie and Melissa are more instructional here than participants – choreographing every move, except James’s leaps, those are on him. Then two more from that session – first, five Rogue ladies definitely working on NOT looking their best:

Moxie and Arianna managing a very un-inviting and intimidating come hither:

Seating near the front will be best for watching the faces for the show. Me, I’ll be in back with my zoom lens… This week, Back to the Coffee Shop for rehearsals – while I try to organize my ballooning schedule.
