Last night we discussed our characters, danced, and even sang the opening number, which is coincidentally titled Caged Dames . It’s always fun to hear how others interpret your work, especially when they’re dead on right, so I really had nothing to add to what our director, Scott Bradley had to say. Our choreographer, Kevin Bellie was a doll, putting us through a routine to see what we could do. I think I have a good chance of getting a ’special’ dance solo. It’s so special, I’ll be onstage, but I won’t be visible to the audience. I’ll be in a refrigerator box! Kevin explained it to me and he said all the really big stars have done it. I think I was able to master ONE of the steps he gave us. It takes mother a long time to learn these things and thank I GOD I won’t be onstage for the entire opening number. I told you Scott was smart. Andra Velis Simon tested our vocal chops and like I said, we started the opening number. When I write a song, I know there will be harmonies but I don’t really think about that. Now that I’m singing harmonies it’s like learning the song all over again after I’ve been singing the lead for months in my head now. So there’s that challenge. Did I mention the acting?
Oh only hope I can be as good as Bill and Taffy.
