One of Those Weeks

It's one of those weeks I would say where rehearsals are getting a little bit slow. Despite the fact that we now have movement along with our vocals. Yes people we have started choreography along with us trying to keep a proper pitch.

For the past weeks, we have been working on the vocals for Ismail. So far we have already gone through 9 songs including today. And a while back we also got to hear the Principles sing their part :) hehe.. All this while we usually rehearse separately because the director wants to get his main actors into the right frame of mind.

We heard Malik singing his "We've Found Him" solo, which I must say was very well done! So just to give you a taste of what the sounded like.. i'll upload a video later on... emphasis later but soon no doubt. We also heard our darling Tisha who is Neno in the cast, sing her version of "Come back my love" as well as Ali singing his solo piece. So far we have only sung a song with Malik / Ismail not Neno or Razak.

Anyway back to one of those weeks, rehearsals have been productive, but very very unfortunately at the moment, it feels almost as if the singing is not up to standard..just yet! I suppose when we start rehearsing at night we are a bit drained from the day earlier on. Most of us have jobs we need to worry bout, some like myself do not need to worry bout time but rather the bills i have to pay.

So yeah, i don't know if it's creeping into the rehearsals.. but it feels like something is amidst. Overall rehearsals are still going smoothly. Sunday was the day which us girls have been waiting for... We were going to see who will get picked to dance in the 1940s dance.

See we have a zapin to dance too, which will then go straight into the 1940s dance later on. Now most of us girls have been wanting to do the 1940s one.. specifically because we get to wear at 1940s outfit. think like tuxedo and very umm... proper, with gloves and long flowing dresses. That kind thing and we have been really looking forward to that.

Here's the thing though not everyone can of course be in every scene. So a few were chosen to do the 1940s dance from start to finish while the rest are to dance the one with Neno. The good news though is that we get to do both.. Meaning we still get to be in the 1940s outfit... whee!!!!

Joy hahaha. That's the fun part about playing pretend.. hehe. Till the next post and more videos.
