So last night we had another performance to another 130 or so people which was yet another good crowd for the Fringe. After the performance we were invited to a gallery exhibition opening of a woman's prints. There were eight really cool pieces, each dealing with another form of dance, and then there was one main word that embodied the dance form. Each of these words was created from a bunch of smaller typed words, again all relating to the dance form in some sort or another. It was a really cool exhibit.
After that I went and met mom and dad and we went to a comedy venue in which we watched Tricity Vouge's Ukulele Cabaret. There were well over 50 people at this performance, and I would say about 20-30% of them all had their ukuleles with them as well! Tricity, who was wearing a Ukulele tied to the top of her head mind you, picked audience members to be the UK's got talent judges and then there was audience members that had offered to perform in the Cabaret! SO FUNNY! Only in Scotland at the Fringe would you see the sort of stuff we saw and heard. haha
Then after that we had tickets to see Showstoppers the Musical in which the audience picks the premise of the show, four musical theatre composers and other details of the show and they have to on the spot make up an entire hour long musical about this topic, using costumes and props, and incorporating the composers style into various songs throughout! It was REALLY amazing how well it all worked out. Our musical was called Mafia-Mia, about the mafia and had to incorporate Sondheim, Stephen Schwartz, Bob Fosse, a mime sequence, and ABBA. It was really really well done, FUNNY, and just a great time.
Today I am currently in tech for another one of our shows opening on Thursday, then we have a show this afternoon and then hopefully seeing Last Five Years this evening. More to come soon!
