Day 391 and 392: Orchestras

Thursday and Friday before opening are the orchestra rehearsals for the upcoming show. One day we run act one, and the next we run act two. It is followed by a sitzprobe on Sunday where the cast sings through the show with the orchestra before dress rehearsals. I wasn't in the orchestra for Forum, and all of the orchestras during the school year I was in were just little quartets or quintets. Therefore, I forgot the magic and real quality of a full orchestra and the amazing ones we have here for SSMT. When you see a musical, the primary portion is music, so it's such a blessing to be in a place where so many talented instrumentalists join together to accompany some talented performers. It all works together like a great symphony and produces magical performing arts and I love being a part of it. I love it here!!!
