Read-through

So, we had a read-through of the play on Monday evening and it went extremely well indeed.

As with all Stoppard plays it's a very wordy piece with lots of innuendo, spoonerisms, and other word-play gags. These don't usually work well when reading a play cold for the first time. But credit where it's due, the Ottershaw gang put their souls into the reading and we had a great time reading the play through.

Now I'm looking forward to a good turnout for auditions.

[And, of course, not looking forward to the decision-making process that follows...]

Poster rethink

Ok. Two things:

1. I forgot to set up an email notification for comments, so I hadn't noticed when anyone had left remarks here. Thanks though, Jo!

2. I've re-re-redesigned the poster. I can't be bothered to post the picture into here, but you can see the (definitely) final design here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ptmoore/3171262318/
