Fiddler dress rehearsal

I think it would be fair to say that last night’s dress rehearsal was not the best. Actually, it was a bit more of a second tech rehearsal rather than a real dress rehearsal. We have a rather complicated set which requires several people to move it (being low on crew numbers means relying on male cast members to help – getting some of them out of the dressing room in time seems to be proving a challenge!) Set changes have been sluggish to say the least. Still, hopefully the old saying about bad dress rehearsals will prove to be true.
