This show has been so incredibly fun to work on so far.  If you would be so kind as to indulge me, the cast and crew are all beautiful, friendly, funny, and insanely talented. Did I mention beautiful?  You’ll have to take my word for it on the friendliness, funniness, and talent for now, but try and tell me that these are not gorgeous specimens of humans. I dare you. Just look at these faces that I get the privilege to gaze upon four days a week:

Let's pretend we're in the evil twin version of Highlights for Children and count the things that are right with this picture: 1) Yellow blazers 2) Oversized plastic jewelry 3) Headbands 4) Denim above the waist 5) Everything

I’m swooning just thinking that I get to look at them in just 2 hours. You don’t get to see them until opening night, which is in less than a month! Get your tickets now; they’re selling fast as flashdancin’ feet.

Speaking of flashdancing feet! The choreography in this show is terrific. Trevor, the choreographer, has been whipping us into shape this summer.  I’ve lost about 8 pounds since dance rehearsals began three weeks ago. If you’ve only seen the movie and you’re not familiar with the musical version, there are some seriously high-powered dance numbers you’ll get to see.  We can’t wait to show you all the payoff of so many mornings being physically unable to hit the snooze button from sore muscles caused by dancing so hard at rehearsal the night before.  It’s been like a free anatomy course.  I’ve discovered at least four new muscles I didn’t know I had before.

Anyways, it’s time for rehearsal! Today’s the first sing-through, and I’m stoked for it – the leads can sing their danged faces off.  Get your tickets, and come back here for more behind-the-scenes news! Word to your grandmother!
