Transitions from Rehearsal to Stage

by Bianca Dillard, dramaturg Our rehearsal process for Holiday has officially come to a close--last night was our last dress rehearsal and tonight will be our first preview. Now comes the part where we step out of the vacuum of rehearsal and on to the stage of performance where the interaction with the audience become real, and live, and tangible. I would like to share a few last behind the scene photos to celebrate our rehearsal process and share a few production photos to whet your appetite for the performance itself.

  In the coming days please stay tuned as I will be posting some material that will supplement the information provided in the Study Guide. In the mean time you are welcome to take a sneak peak at the Study Guide itself: here.
