After an extensive season of Musical Theatre for the community of Marlborough; the cast, crew and orchestra now have some evenings to spend at home - if they so choose.
For the first time ever I got sick before and during the show! I blame the break we had at Easter. Usually one pushes through to the end of the show and then the week following the body has the opportunity to tell you that hibernation is the only option.
It was not pleasant in the pit with coughing fits, trying to stifle them or at least keep them out of the path of the ever-senstive mics with feeble noise-gates. However with the power of some rather foul-tasting cough drops, numerous bottles of powerade and supersoft tissues we managed to survive.
The head is not completely clear of dancing all night, but no longer getting married every morning (still more than I care to)
In the middle of it all the opportunity to transport my adorable feline Bowie arose. It took 2 days, fogs, rain, and 4 airports for her to get here, and one would never guess she had been through it all. She is currently sleeping in my bed nestled under the covers after spending all day in the sun. It is wonderful to have her with me again. There is nothing like an animal to bring a home to life :) She still is not a fan of the violin, but is tolerant of students (until they start to play) and has even taken to following some of them up the drive when they leave.
Here is a picture of Bowie...
As you can see she is unique with her polydactyl paws (thumbs). She also has one blue eye and one amber eye - hence the name.
Over the next few weeks there will be another Tempo concert (27th May is Ensemble night!!) and more teaching. I have in mind a number of projects I would love to establish for the latter part of the year.
My other project is to write the Study Guide for Kiwi Kapers! The year is Superheroes :) It's going to great fun!
