Monday's rehearsal was spent learning the tango scene from Act II. Now when I read the script, I knew there was a dancing scene, and I figured, "Hey, no problem. I can dance a tango." But I didn't realize this was going to be a choreographed production number! I am afraid I will end up looking like Kate Gosselin (let's take a look at Kate performing some of her better moves, shall we)!
So, we begin. We have all had one rehearsal already to learn the basics, and now we are going to put it all together. Well... mostly together. Well... some of us more together than others. Melissa Bloch - Meier , our choreographer is patient, persistent and… well… KIND.
I am paired with Duncan (Jeff Anderson); Butch (Dan Myers) and Audrey (Chelsey Peterson) are a couple, and Doc (Gene Schuldt) and Stephanie (Matthew Patten) make up the third unique combination. We dance, we laugh, we discuss, we laugh, we dance some more, and by the end of the rehearsal, some of us ache. But we accomplish what we set out to do! Here is a peek at some of the process.
