Jesus Christ Superstar Mallorca
One week to go and things are hotting up here.
Centre Stage Productions had their first rehearsal and sound check with the orchestra last Saturday.
7 Musicians, many of them old friends, went through their paces with Musical Director Conway Jones.
The soloists used stand microphones on this occasion, but on the night they will all wear body mics. No action for the rehearsal, just sound checks.
We take the Sala Mozart over at The Auditorium next Tuesday. First job is to position the dozens of lights needed to complement the sets and costumes in this exciting production.
On Wednesday the stage will be laid out and then the lights set into their final positions.
Then comes the set which will be built during the day.
I'll let you know more about the plans for the Auditorium in future blogs, suffice to say for the moment, the cast are raring to get in there.
Carlos and his dancers were in rehearsal last night at the studio. They are looking great...and sooo raunchy. You're in for some fun choreography.
In the run up to the show I'll keep you up to date with how things are progressing...maybe help you have some of the fun reading about it, as we are having getting ready.
By the way, Danny had been out last night hunting down the finishing touches to his costume!
It suits you Danny!!!

ANOTHER WINNER
OLIVER

First off, congratulations to Centre Stage Youth Theatre. Oliver was great, a sell-out and really good fun.
Lots of talent, some wonderful singing and loads of enthusiasm.
Alex who played Nancy, seen here in the red dress, brought us two unscheduled laughs.
The first on the Saturday when the lights came on from a stage blackout, and there was Alex looking like a sprinter leaving the starting traps.
Having just been murdered, she was caught in the middle of getting up and trying to leave the stage!
She froze...she'd still be in that position now if there hadn't been another, unscheduled, blackout for her to exit gracefully!
The audience enjoyed the fun and even applauded when they realised what had happened.
The second was on the Sunday when the script called for a bottle of drink to be poured out. No bottle!
So Alex, breeding will show, adlibbed..."Oi, where's the bloody gin?"
That dear audience is why the cast got a fit of the giggles and Alex got a slap from mummy after the show!
Next production for Centre Stage is Jesus Christ Superstar on 21st, 22nd and 23rd of THIS MONTH.
Please make sure of your tickets. Centre Stage now sell out for virtually all performances. The only way to be sure of a ticket is to buy them early. Someone contacted Centre Stage office earlier this week to complain that the seats he wanted had already gone...for all 3 performances. As usual, you have been warned.
Tickets are available at The Auditorium Box Office in Palma, Paseo Maritimo and branches of Servicaixa in Mallorca.
