Hi friends! 

Sorry to say, but today is going to be short and sweet. By me being a lazy bones on Sunday, I am trying to cram in a few things outside of rehearsal. We are still trucking along on staging Act II now in rehearsal, so as an ensemble member we are doing a lot of reviewing and cleaning. The beauty of being part of the original cast is that things get to change. Being that this is my 3rd show with the choreographer, I understand a little more how he works. He will do broad strokes to achieve pictures, and then go back and change and finesse until it is perfect. Instead of focusing on the major details when learning because that can take up a ton of time. He is incredible, so ultimately the final product always encompasses the story. Even if the first couple times we mess up the steps, he is more worried about the story coming across than anything. 

I was able to sneak in a great PT session and a spin class last night following rehearsal. Got myself into an ice bath and then enjoyed “Breakfast for Dinner” family dinner with my roommates and sister. It felt so good at the end of a long day to sit and be surrounded by friends…all while sitting in my pajamas of course.

Well, I am off. I have a few things to get to before rehearsal and training tonight. Tuesdays and Thursdays are my toughest days, but once they are done I feel so accomplished! Happy Tuesday!
