Idas exchangestudent year : Legally Blonde

Ohh wow i cant believe its over! All back in november we started rehersals for this, and now 3 months and 6 shows later, here we are were done. So as i said back in november there was auditions for this, its a musical btw and a lot of people showed up, cause its such a big production and because so many knows legally blonde or have atleast seen the movie. (In danish its called "blondinens hævn"). I tryied out for tech, which is helping backstage, building set, props and costumes, ect. So after people was casted for this of course we started working on it. Some of the roles were yet to be determined though, so one day my director came up to me and he told me that i was gonna play Elles(main carecter) mom. In the beginning i was really nervous but eventually it soaked in and me and everyone was really excited about the hole play.
After like 2 weeks our main director got a councousion from a falling set piece. We were all really worried but thought that it wouldnt take long before he would come back. But we were wrong. Our show dates was 23-24-25 january and 6-7-8 febuary, but as we got closer and the show was not near done and orur main director was not back yet, he had to call in another director. Once he got there the show was supposed to be the next day. Since we were not done, we had to put our first 3 shows on strike and move them to the 13-14-15 febuary. So we bacically learned new blocking and put together a hole new show on only 9 days. Those days were long and intense. The thursday we performed we hadent done a full run through of the play yet so the first night performing was also out first time doing a full run through. But we performed those six nights and i must admit that it was so much fun. I got close with so many amazing people and i am so gratefull for all the things thay have tought me.
That musical was just so much fun, it was a lot of work, but it all paid off in the end. I got to play a drunk plastic mom with facelift, HUGE boobs and a lib job. Im not sure if i am ever gonna forget all those songs.
