If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Did they give you the one with poison? Otherwise, you'll probably be okay.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

They put the poison into both cups. Hopefully, you've spent the last few years developing an immunity to Iocane....

eta to make more better....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Ah yes, the new Iocainochino.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Doesn't look like it so far. I'll keep my fingers crossed though.

Damn, so that's what that word was

Now tagless for your comfort.

Never mess with a Sicilian when death coffee is on the line.

What is even happening?

Ah yes, the new Iocainochino.
Can I get that half-fat, non-caf?

Do they make you order two cups at a time?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Are there any theatre folk about (NoiseDesign, aurelia, Trudy)? Since I only work in rochester it is hard for me to figure out what is "standard" rehearsal procedure, and each designer who comes in seems to think their idea of what should happen during tech is "standard".

We currently have 1 6 hour and 2 10 out of 12's for tech, with no costumes, just sound, lights and props. We then do 3 "dress rehearsals" that have about 2 hours for the actors to work with the director, warm-up, get dressed, and then we run the show and go home.

This usually works out OK, as there aren't very many actors or changes, but this time we have 24 actors and about 200 changes that are under 2 minutes. No one can give us any accurate timings.

The designer seems flabbergasted that we don't normally tech in costume-- the artisitic director, the production manager and the director seem flabbergasted that we would even consider trying to tech in costumes. I don't have enough experience to tell who is craxy-- does anyone know?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Missing time capsules.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

It depends on the show. IME, a show that doesn't have many costume changes often won't have costumes as part of the first tech. A show with a large amount of costume changes absolutely should have costumes ASAP. For some shows I've worked on, we had costumes even before we moved into the performance space, just so we could get used to it.
