Hamlet rehearsal

[breakinglight11]

Tonight is the first full cast rehearsal for Hamlet. We're doing the only scene yet unblocked, the one with the players and their show. I've been terrified of this scene for a long time, because I have an idea for how it should look, namely incorporation of dance into the "theater" of it, but I'm afraid my ability to choreograph may not be up to the task. I have worked out a rough pattern dance that I think might look cool, but I won't know until it's actually performed in front of me. So we'll see. I've got my fingers crossed.

On a less uncertain note, our swords came in! Sheena is an angel for procuring them for me. We have our lovely lovely weapons! Two stage combat-rated rapiers and two gorgeous costume daggers. They please me greatly, and now my actors will get a chance to work our awesome fight with the real deal.
