More Midsummers

Fact of the day: Shakespeare wasn’t officially married to his wife because he spelt his name wrong on the marriage register. Greatest playwrite posibly ever known and he couldn’t spell his own name properly at times.
Gradually blocking is being introduced, yet I still don’t have my method of blocking down. I now think I know how I’ll split the page, but there’s so many characters I keep forgetting their abreviations. Basically I need to spend more time just thinking about blocking.
A slight problem there has been is that Olivia, who plays Helena, has been off since Thursday. I believe there were family problems back home. It was very short notice and it was a member of the Romeo and Juliet cast who let Mark know, which I suppose wasn’t too bad considering how short notice it was, however I gave her the entire weekend to formally let me know how long she’d be off, and I’m still waiting on it. She’s off again today, she told Mark, but he’s not in till two, so I didn’t know until she replied to a text.
What concerns me the most about her not contacting us as we told them on the first day of rehearsals, is that I don’t know if she’s even leting the academy know she’s absent. After all that would affect any bursaries or student loans.
I’ve just came to a posible solution for my chaactet abreviations, I can use lower case letters for some characters, that should make things easier.
