So far, in my opinion, our production of Honk Jr. is going very well. From the start of rehearsals, I did not like the script one bit, but now that we have made changes and made it the most honest we can, I have different thoughts than I did at the beginning of the process.
During the last run through that we had, I was thinking that there was a lot of improvement from the last time I saw the whole show. The honesty was better, people were leaning in, and the energy was higher than the last time. The lines were mostly down, and I was getting more confident about the show in general. I think that if there are a few things I could do better, it would be still having a lot of energy during certain songs and leaning in.
Moving into tech week, I am feeling nervous but mostly excited. I am only nervous because now we are in a new space and performances are coming up so soon. I am very excited because it’s finally tech week, we can see the show in a bigger space, and we will be having performances soon. I think this week we will accomplish a lot and definitely be ready for the performances. I will keep reminding myself that I need to be listening, leaning in, keep having the stakes up high, having a lot of energy, being honest, and having lots of fun,
I am looking forward to the performances, and I am having lots of fun during this production of Honk Jr.
