Music and Confidence
I visited the rehearsal of Sound of Music last night to see the nearly finished set and was treated to the blocking of “Confidence” sung by Maria (Lauren Yokabaskas). As she went through the new movements, I admired the borrowed stained glass windows, “stone work” and gingerbread details added recently. While this was happening on stage, the kids of Cast B and others were giggling in the lobby, doing their physical warm ups lead by Kristi McHugh. Lots of cha-cha-ing was going on!
Later in the lobby to I was able to listen to the nuns rehearse their final song of the show “The Sound of Music” reprise with Mother Abbess (Becky Michals Rinaldi) leading them through the many vocal parts. (A photo of the most of the nuns and postulates is below). Last show the majority of women played the wives, this time they’re sisters.
