hell week: day two

The seussical song of the hour:

HORTON
On the fifteenth of May
In the jungle of Nool
In the heat of the day,
In the cool of the pool,
He was splashing

JUNGLE CITIZENS
Splash!

HORTON
Enjoying the jungle's great joys
When Horton the elephant

BOY
Horton the Elephant

BIRD GIRLS, ALL
Horton the elephant

HORTON
Heard a small noise.


Rehearsal last night went well (ish).
The costumes and make up look spectacular. It was the first we had done full costume/full makeup, and all our hard work has really payed off.
The local newspaper came and took pictures for what seems like it will be a very large article about our very small theater company. The photographer needed a contact so he could have some one identify people in photos/answer last minute questions.
For some reason (my frazzled teenager-ness, perhaps) he did not trust me very much. This morning, after I responded to his 20937 emails about cast lists and show dates and characters, he sent me this:

"i knew i could count on you ...
so i put all my eggs in one basket, you.
was getting worried if i didn't get a reply from you,
i would have to look into old files for other contact names."

It was very interesting.

Here are some pictures:

The whos.

Well, I need to shower and get ready for tonight's rehearsal.
