FIRST DAY WITH CAST IN THE CULTURAL CENTRE! So I've had numerous rehearsals that go by quickly but none have ever gone by as quickly as today's. Seriously, when Lisa (the best stage manager ever) told us this was the last scene we'd be tech-ing because we only had a couple more minutes

January 9, 2014 Well today marks the last day rehearsing at CSOPA for Shrek... and for me, forever.
