The BIG Day!
Today's the day!
Blind Date opens tonight.
I'm totally nervous - and oddly calm all at the same time.
I had amazing press yesterday in both the FFWD and the Calgary Herald.
Front page of the Herald Entertainment section ABOVE THE FOLD (which I've just learned is a whole other "status marker" in the world of press)!
....
I'm concerned that in both articles the show comes off as sounding too sexual - which is not at all the aim of this experiment. I fear I spoke too often of the turn I did in the Spiegle Tent - which was a very, very different piece and environment. My worry is it's going to create an odd expectation in the audience before they even get there - and in the tent, I had the element of surprise on my side. These will all prove to be great lessons down the road should Blind Date have a life beyond Loose Moose....
So - my day will be filled with last minute errands as I'm also acting as my own producer/ production team! I spent an hour yesterday in the shop at U of C constructing a pregnancy belly that I have to test this morning....I'm trying to create the effect of "breaking my water". Jeez!
Alright.
Must get the ball rolling.
No doubt I will have much to write about this time tomorrow!

I was blown away Rebecca. I even blogged about the show.

As I mention in the blog post, I'd like to add a small pic to help promote the event if you could send me one.....
You've come a long way from the best Maid Marian ever. I just wanted to
congratulate you Rebecca, well done indeed.
I heard about your press from a little bird, and was very happy to find out how well you have been doing, of course some of us could see this coming for you a long time ago (wink).
Again well done and here's to your continued success.
Continued success with your new show, Rebecca! Wilma
