From Don’s Blackberry…

Everything today was almost like a real rehearsal. I asked for some variety in the simple dances like, oh a lift. I watched boys trying to figure out how to lift a girl the first time. They probably saw it on tv. The most adventurous went for it. Crashed under the girl and limped out of rehearsal.

So all was typical USA. Until they told us that the cast is doing a show for the government and will miss to tomorrow night, the next morning and the following afternoon.

That’s one of 10 days!

We are rehearsing in a small room with no sense of space. We will mark the desert trees in the parking space tomorrow.

A trip to the site. After 4 days of mishaps in road building, a semitruck of bricks, a truck of cement, a bulldozer start churning up the smooth slopes of the sand! 50 laborers with hats and bandanas holding shovels. Steel pipe going up for the light. And an ‘experiment’ where they just pour cement over the desert sand. Ok. And the bulldozer has extended the audience area with a rake going up at least 4feet higher from the original.

That’s all great of course, except if we now that we could run over a twig of a tree sapling with a man made mountain there would have been more than 5 better sites.

But the money is spent here now and by gosh with a little chinese labor slapping together brick and shoveling sand we will have an outdoor theater reminiscent of the Lost Colony.

And here’s the installation of the trap door.
