The green door

Welcome to Edinburgh! Behind this door lives Fork! After two nights in the same flat I already have deja vu feelings from Friends. So far we are having a great time.
Yesterday was our only rehearsal time at the George Square Theatre. We had eight hours time to load in, build up, install the video, rig the lights, make a soundcheck and have a run- through. On the technical side everything was working perfectly thanks to our wonderful crew. On the artistic side we had some issues... Somehow Jontes white shoes did not make it to Edinburgh and finding white riding boots in size 41 is not that easy. But Linda, who can fix most things, also fixed this one as you can see in the picture below.

The other excitement was of course the already by now well known changing-clothes-while-singing situation. We finally got to try it with all the bits and pieces that goes with it. Did it work? Lets just say that none of us were naked when entering the stage again... It didn´t go as smoothly as I had dreamt of  but I am sure that in two weeks we will not only have time to get dressed without stress, we will also have time to put on new make-up, have a drink and make a phone call before re-entering the stage.
This is our theatre.

And this is what we look like when we are lost.

Right now we are sitting in our dining room trying to figure out how to be able to do some of the promotion gigs when the arrangers think we can perform without any technic. This is where the word a cappella gives you problems. "Come on guys, just sing one song, you don´t need any microphones or PA." Well... we do claim to be the group that reinvents a cappella.
