Fetch's Final Week of Run-Throughs!

We’re getting close to filming this week, so there were quite a few things during our run-throughs that were focused on understanding the process of filming, and whether or not things were going to work on the stage, with the set, and the camera. The camera was set up for our Sunday rehearsal, so I was able to see things on the monitor and was able to understand the spacing and what everything looked like. Luckily, it all looked great, and now I can’t wait to see their costumes all together with the set pieces. 

Prior to our Thursday rehearsal, I went into the theatre and was able to record the sound cues, and was able to work on the set on Thursday. All the finishing touches are coming together- we even have a cone of shame for one of the dogs now. Alongside their physicality and their costumes- they will look not only fabulous but also very much like dogs. 

Now that filming is on Sunday, we spent our last rehearsal on Thursday going through the show and making everything more dog-like. It was those little things that made watching the show more enjoyable, and more believable, and overall just more finished. I asked them to really push the limits, and surprise me with whatever they decided to do, and they really took that in stride. There was a bit of tweaking here and there, but overall, they did a great job of taking my strange notes to heart and acting away! Sunday is going to be a long day, and hopefully, we won’t have any major issues, but we’re at the finish now- let’s put on a show!
