The Ultimate Rehearsal
Last night we performed the Burlesque at the King Club in Madison, WI. There was no real publicity for this event- just some fliers hanging up here and there. As a result the people in the audience were just a couple less than the people on the stage.
This didn’t matter. It was a great show. We got to try out new choreography, the rope tricks I do with Betty Wantsme were some of the best we’d done, and Ms. Behavin was even better than usual, especially in the final number.
I suspect it’s because of the lack of pressure we had. It let us be relaxed, play it loose, and generally meant that if we stretched ourselves, we were secure in the lack of consequences for failure.
We’ve had larger shows, and we will. But I kinda hope we never quite outgrow the smaller times when there’s just not that much goin’ on.
