"Children of Eden" Rehearsals

I haven't talked much about the Children of Eden rehearsals that are now underway. The First Stage Theatre Company show will be presented in April, so the cast has only been rehearsing for a couple of weeks - but they already sound great!

A disclaimer - I'm the "interim" producer for the show, along with co-producer Clint McElroy (work duties keep me from doing much more than helping out a bit). I stopped by tonight's rehearsal and watched the cast being put through its paces by director Jack Cirillo, music director Mark Smith and choreographer Mary Smirl.

It's always fun to watch the process unfold, as the young cast learns the dance steps, the stage movements and the terrific songs that are part of the show. I'll do my best to keep you updated as the process rolls along!

They're tackling a challenging show, but there's a lot of amazing talent in the cast - it's going to be awesome!
