As I begin to type I can't help but look around at the room I'm in. It literally looks as though it belongs on the Titanic as the card room. Marble tables with 2 leather studed chairs around each one. Old fashions light fixtures and paintings on the wall. It's almost as if Im being transported 100 years ago, and yet I am in my lulu jumper and yoga pants. Strange.

Anyway, 2 weeks of rehearsal down! We have a show on Thursday and I really need to learn my lines. Its been fun playing around with antics and getting back into the groove of working with the same 3 people, collecting ideas, casting and rehearsing on our own. The independence is intoxicating in the best possible way.

It's Saturday morning at 10:15. I've already had breakfast. Now Im going to blog, email, learn lines, workout and shower, all before lunch at 1pm. After lunch we have driving with Guispeppe. The cars are new this year and a bit bigger so I want to make sure Im comfortable with them. Then rehearsal until 6, hopefully zumba, dinner then out for the evening! Ours days really are full and there isn't much free time.

Well, nothing else to report as of now... hope everyone has a lovely Saturday <3

Once more with feeling

Back in the Remo!! In a way I can't believe I am back here. The warm salt air in January, sun shining and lack of snow make it hard to believe that Winter is in full force back home.

I am so happy to be back though. Tour is going to be so different but in such a good way. I really am excited. My tour mates are:
Dani- She's a British girl who is a dancer and has done loads of dance work as well as a zumba instructor and ran her own dance company.
Laura- is from BC and she has a degree in History as well as a BA in Drama.
Peter- another Brit whos done lot of TIE in England as well as other parts of Europe.

We're in our second week of rehearsal and I am excited to start sinking my teeth into the script and putting the shows on their feet.

Very lucky this time, we have a zumba instructor, yoga instructor and hip hop guy so we;ve been staying quite fit. Waking up almost every morning to work out and working out after rehearsal as well. So far so good! By the end of tour hopefully we'll have 6 pcks ahaha

That's about it or now... I will be sure to post often and keep everyone updated as my 2012 unfolds!
Peace and love xx
