4 days until previews..

N10 Productions have had a crazy three days in preperation for the London Previews which begin on Thursday!

We have all been madly gluing, painting, shopping, begging and borrowing - this includes a trip to Homebase in which the manager was witness to myself and the stage managaer's shameless charm and a very ominous phone call from our director all so we could return a piece of set that was just a little bit too big! We have also had major paint spillages, in cars and in rehearsal spaces which resulted in much scooping and scrubbing. On top of all this, in our first full dress rehearsal today we had a power cut so the audience who had come especially to see the play had to watch it without lighting, sound or live music! Luckily - the power came back half way through and they insisted we start from the beginning so they got to see it in all it's glory after all. Their feedback was very positive and much appreciated.

Overall, the week has been incredibly productive and the show has finally come together through the exhaustion and the heat and we can't wait for you all to see it!

Had a very early morning rehearsal today - not at our most creative I must say, but we went through the acting in a few scenes which improved them imediately, so quite useful. We had to rehearse outside though because there wasn't a space free for us to use for rehearsals. Good job it was a nice day!

We will be going on a hunt for the Fringe programme on Wednesday. Last year we found it in Rocket in Camden so i think i will be making a trip to Camden on Wednesday! Please let us know where you find yours!

Very excited!

The coffins arrived! Despite being a little creapy they are brilliant and look amazing on stage under the lights! We were debating how to put hinges on them to keep the lid attached without completely ruining them. We decided to think about it over the weekend.

We can't wait to show the coffins off on the Edinburgh royal mile in August - Look out for the procession of Nuns, coffins and a the flock of vultures... You won't be able to resist coming to see the show.. See you all there!

Rehearsals

N10 Prodcuctions spent the whole day inside today rehearsing and painting the set. We therefore missed the lovely weather but we did get a lot done! We now have gravestones and a bath - rust free!

Our coffins are arriving tomorrow (from the morgue) - Yes we ordered them from a morgue but they haven't been used and they're free so we figured it was acceptable.

We did our first full runthrough today - the play is finally coming together and it only makes us more excited to get to the Edinburgh Fringe in August!
