Opening Weekend

I believe the production has finally hit its stride. Granted it's a somewhat lengthy stride (clocking in at somewhere around two hours forty minutes), but it's pretty tight, all things considered.
A few items of note:
The costumes. The costumes range from serious-business (the suit Maryssa/Yang Sun wears after becoming Shui Ta's manager) to hilarious (Susan and my hooker outfits, the Gods robes and hats). My personal favorite would have to be the garish, floral-print dress, matching shoes, and flamingo-pink jacket Lauren wears while portraying Wife. Hats off to Holly for the hours she spent hunched over the sewing machine altering various costume pieces and creating the God's robes.
The set. You should see that thing. Jackie recreated a portion of a cityscape out of flats and hinges, and it looks darn good. And the kicker? That sucker is portable. Because at Woman's Will, Load-In and Load-Out are daily occurances; every day we put the set together, and organize the props and costumes in under thirty minutes, and at the end of the performance, we break everything back down and pack it up in the Woman's Will Truck.
And speaking of the truck. The Woman's Will Truck, which we use to haul the entire production from one public park to another, used to be covered in graffitti, but now has a snazzy stencil of the Woman's Will logo on the side.
The performance. I have this attitude that some have described as "annoyingly positive," so, needless to say, I'm not much of a critic. All I can really say is this: as a rule, I love to laugh, and I love things that make me laugh, and I can't think of a single person in the cast whose performance has failed to do so. Two Snaps Up to Erin our delightful director, for the adaptation, and for putting this whole show together. Let's hear it for the girls.
