Decisions! Choices! If only dithering burned calories, how skinny I would be! Never mind that, I want to make a blog post, Lame Post Friday or not and I decide to go with a Post-Rehearsal Post and share some pictures of last night’s rehearsal of A Revolutionary Murder, the murder mystery we are presenting to benefit Herkimer County Historical Society next Saturday. We had a fun rehearsal and I am greatly optimistic about the performance.
That face!
Regular readers may recognize some of the actors from previous murder mysteries. I do love my regulars! This time I also have two people I have worked with on other plays, and they are doing marvelously.
She is setting them straight on a few things.
One of my actresses showed up in a spangly gown she intends to wear as her costume. I love it! Costume does help one get into character. I at least try to wear the shoes I intend to have on.
A wider shot.
As you may notice, we are rehearsing in Herkimer Elks Lodge, where the performance will take place. The Elks are very generous with letting us use their space. It is so helpful to rehearse where we will actually perform. Additionally, I like to purchase a glass of wine after rehearsal.
Almost everybody is in this shot!
I guess I have not said much about the mystery, but I feel this is all to the good. I would not want to give away any salient plot points; I like my audience to be surprised.
A Revolutionary Murder will be presented Saturday, April 25 at Herkimer Elks Lodge, 124 Mary St., Herkimer, NY, doors open at 5, dinner at 6. Tickets are $45 for individuals, $80 per couple, available at the Historical Society at 406 Main St., Herkimer, or at the Elks Lodge.
