"The Winter's Tale" rehearsals update

Rehearsals will start on Tuesday 27th August and the production week starts on Saturday 28th September (the production runs from the public dress rehearsal on Weds 2nd October until Saturday 2nd November).

Is that true that theatre people are superstitious? And it is considered bad luck to wish someone "good luck" in a theatre? And it's better to tell "break a leg"?

So if it is true, then "BREAK A LEG, JONATHAN!!!"

Masterclass with Jonathan Firth

(Thanks to you Flo that you found this information). Today (7 August) Jonathan Firth gave a masterclass on actor-director relationships at NYFA (National Youth Film Academy). It's an organisation created to locate, educate and showcase the talents of gifted young actors and film makers aged 16-25 years old from around the UK.

As I undestand tomorrow will be another day of hard work - filming ( I assume with you, Jonathan). I read comments, students liked your master class and they think you're knowledgeable, interesting and funny. It's great to see that you enjoy working with youngsters, teaching them. And they're lucky to have you as their teacher.
