Tick Tick Tick.....

The clock's ticking! Opening night is just a couple of breaths away!
Gosh, it's been so frantically busy since we started back into rehearsals in January, that there's been little time to keep the Blog updated.....but if you're connected up on facebook, you'll have been getting all the tidbits there!

This is our Set Director - Matthew [on the left] and our spare hands Shane.  They've been beavering away building, painting, shaping, re-shaping - and in this heat, sweating up a river!

Matthew has had to come up with some creative ways to use the space - with such a large cast and 3 scenes running concurrently, his challenges have been no small toast.  But here's a man who's always up to the challenge!  Meanwhile, Shane had to do some research to make a unique prop - he's now worried that the AFP may come knocking on his door to question him about illegal firearms!! 
first dress rehearsal

I've loved the way that so many of the local community have lent a hand - from the local folk club who lent us their lights when our Lighting Director pulled out and we were unable to locate another at short notice.   And the theatre group who let us borrow a smoke gadget.  Another theatre group who help with a costume piece we struggled to find.  And someone who gave us a rare costume piece that we'd never have found! Individual friends and contacts who've been coming up with the myriad of costume and set inclusions that create Community THEATRE!

If you haven't got your tickets yet go here .... www.ticketebo.com.au/thunderbelly ..... and don't forget the Bootleg Dinner on Saturday night is a 3-course meal [BYO] plus show for just $50pp - what fabulous value!
