We've finished blocking



Well, today brought us back the schedule of 30 min jumproping warmup before jumping into WHIPPED INTO SHAPE. We then finely tuned alot of the 2nd act. 
here is a spoiler for the UBER FANS out there 
SO DONT READ AHEAD IF YOU WANT TO BE SURPRISED......

there is no automation in the tour and the cast moves all the set pieces.  With the cutting of 3 tracks( 2 girls & 1 guy), plus all the major 
set pieces (house included) being trimmed down to representative bits that can move on a semi---ITS A WHOLE NEW SHOW. 
Still expect to be awed! I am not going to say what exactly it is....but know that the window moment at the beginning as well as the house flying in will not be.  Sorry kids.....thats the way a TIER B tour runs.  

Also, looks like i strayed a bit from the show and starting ranting about the Democratic Convention....sorry for that. I just thought it needed mentioning. Cause jazzhands and pink are amazing, but sometimes the rest of the world is on a different schedul. But maybe Obama could be pink?  I was thinking of creating BLONDE FOR OBAMA T-shirts, but then maybe the producers would get mad. 
 Dont know.....
anything is possible on the road.

To answer a question: the dog playing BRUISER is named Frankie.  And here is a lil video of Rhiannon working with him( cant get it to download so stay tuned).

SO, we finished blocking the show today around 3.  We were all elated, and tomorrow we begin the runthroughs and cleanups.  It will be nice, seeing as how we haven't visited the first act in almost a week. SCARY!!!!!  

Also, got our first fan pic with Becky Gulsvig, who is our illustrious Elle.  So here ya go....

um...did i forget something?  dont think so....buenos noches mi amigos

It's always a releif to get the blocking completed, so that the various pieces start to look like a show.
Hope you are able to upload the pics and video later.
