Tech run… more like tech jog.
I wasn't looking forward to teching our show as not only did I know it was our first chance to use the box, but our piece involves lots of difficult sounds and visuals. In the space of four hours we had only accomplished twenty-five pages. I thought we were never going to finish the tech, as we had to keep stopping and starting the play melted, lacking energy and commitment. I felt disappointed about this as we needed to savour any time we had in the theatre, rehearsing this play and being able to work with the box as our first show was fast approaching. We finished teching the show the day before our first performance, but once it was done a large weight was lifted off everyones shoulders and we were now ready to crack on with prepping for our shows.
