We are just promoting the holy bejesus out of the show here in Edmonton. Did any of us mention that we are now in Edmonton? Well, here we are and ready to show our stuff. We so far have done a live bit at the mall, yes the mall, with the CBC Edmonton, Eleanor did a web media interview and I am blogging for the fringe. You can follow that blog here.
We have the parade tomorrow and we decorated Betty. I'm having trouble up loading her picture but I'll be sure to add her soon.
The challenging part was our tech rehearsal, I'm not going to spend time with anything that may sound negative but just know the space is small and low and we had to re-block. A little stress full, but damn it, we are professional and we can do it, we have done it and the opening show on Saturday will be amazing and sexy with new sexy blocking. YES.
Well, This Is Awkward

Looking forward to seeing it. It sounds great.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the show in Edmonton, you cover a lot of physical and emotional territory and it's a smart, slinky, funny and at times poignant work. Once everyone gets settled in, the audience is yours. It's certainly a reminder of how far things have come in the last 30 years or so, but if you put it up in the town i live near, you'd still be banned, fined or possibly arrested. Friggin' patriarchy. Well, since one good turn deserves another, I recommend heartily an Australian website by the name of Beautiful Agony. It's very cool. All the best on your tour, brave ones.
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, I was sitting in a shoe shine stand in Toronto and there was a big ol' honkin' "Edmonton Fringe Festival" poster on the wall behind the stand. Apparently, you folks are a part of <---------> theatre. (I'm guessing that means somethin' at North America's biggest fringe theatre festival.)
