ALASDAIR SATCHEL’S WEBLOG
Running Around
July 11 2008
I must admit I'm really pleased. I think the show is in good shape already, and now we've just got to settle in to trying to control all the chaos. The show does need an element of chaos to make it seem true to life, but we need to be on top of it, just to make sure it’s really smooth running.
Our “newsletter” has arrived. It's called the Glengirnie Gazette and it's full of useful information on life in Glengirnie, the village where our ceilidh is set. We've chortled a lot already at the content, but have absolutely no idea how to complete the crossword….
Life outside the rehearsal room continues too. Many of the cast are enjoying the pleasures of local Tobermory restaurant, Cafe Fish, which as you might guess, specialises in seafood. Barrie who plays John Angus in the play says it's one of the best meals he's ever had.
Some of us also took a trip out to the beautiful white beach at Calgary, at the north end of Mull, where some red-throated divers were spotted.
It's lovely rehearsing on Mull. I'm going to miss it when we go out on the road, but I can't wait to get stuck in to touring round our rather lovely green country.
