Getting Started, Gaining Momentum

Our first cast meeting and read-through was tremendous — very clearly we have a terrifically talented cast and crew. And even though we were missing a handful of our actors last night, we're on our way to creating a great production of To Kill a Mockingbird.

(You know you have a good cast when after the first full — and cold — reading of the play, our actors picked up on a couple of historical inaccuracies. They'll keep the director on his toes!)

Rehearsal schedules are coming together. We have another read-through with everyone in attendance, and then it's time to focus on set design and construction. We will begin blocking the show next Sunday, March 13.

Over the course of the next week, we will be using this space to introduce people to our cast members. Each day, we'll run a few biographies of the actors — but not any of the embarrassing audition night photos!

Safe travels to our cast members singing their way to Washington, D.C., and partying their way back from Mardi Gras!
