The last rehearsals with the orchestra were this morning and we’re all excited about the first performance tonite! The way it looks right now we won’t have that big of an audience. The Luxembourg crowd is most likely not familiar with the director or the Volksbühne so its not so exciting for them. And besides, tuesday and wednesday aren’t exactly nights when most people go out. But who cares, for us it will be lots of fun! Everything has really come together well, I’m proud to be a part of the show. I feel like a part of something special. I’ll miss seeing the crowd here when we get back to Berlin as the show starts up again first in September. With nothing else to do but hang out with eachother we’re getting to know eachother well.
When I get back to Berlin the work starts up again with other projects. On Saturday night is the Eisler Prize Competition, luckily I’ve had plenty of time to practice here. One or two more rehearsals with Max and we’ll be all set! It will even be broadcasted in Deutschland Radio, so tune in at 8pm on saturday!
