And so another production comes to an end. Inheritance was a lot of fun and I probably enjoyed it more than usual because I didn’t have as much to worry about although for the next one I’ve already been warned that I’ll be a busy boy. The party last night was good, even though we were all completely exhausted. It was a good chance to catch up socially without having to discuss the speed of a particular set change, or how many times Ian made noises off. It looks like Clarabel had a good time too! The best part was sleeping in this morning - I only woke up about two hours ago (1pm) which is a very rare occurance.
It’s probably a good time to mention this new app I’ve been playing with. I can’t remember where I came across this one. It’s a simple little app that makes a timeline of dates and lays them all out nicely for you. Strangely enough, it’s called Timeline. To test it out, I plotted all the productions I’ve worked on to date and it seems to arrange things really well - it simply automatically adjusts the layout as you add more events. An exceprt from my timeline is below…
Obviously you can tweak all the colours and fonts etc. In any case, it’s pretty hard to make it look bad. There’s a video on their site that shows how it in action, which you can see here. Anyway, that’s all for now. Fame rehearsals start in two weeks time!
