The first rehearsal. I always go expecting the worst, especially as the group has just come back from various tours around Vanuatu and the Solomons. We'd agreed several weeks ago to give up any leave in lieu of overtime until rehearsals were well underway. But 9 o'clock comes and we're still short. Yvette's relative's baby was still born and she's been comforting the family. But some, who I shall not name, who one wouldn't expect to see on time on the first day of rehearsals are there. No one's exactly thrilled to learn the second half has been re written since they went away and that's a whole lot of wasted paper. Even Yvette finally comes in. We have a good meeting and leap in to the first scene and the rest of the cast learn the first song. By the end of the day we're seven pages and 2 songs into the play. Great start. Good atmosphere.
