Eilidh Newton
Jo Small
Erica Wilson
Hurray! We are all finally rehearsing together! And a great rehearsal it was too - we all worked on the Ganesha Dance, we are all quite confident with all the choreography for this now and it's just a matter of polishing, we will have time for this when Zoobin gets back.
We took about 45 minutes out of the rehearsal to all practice our solos, duets etc. The Quartet people have added counts to help with the speed and togetherness of the piece. We are finding this way easier than before. We have also created running order:
Eilidh & Jo - Duet (Jo remaining onstage with the violin)
Holly & Marianna - Duet (Holly remaining onstage ready for quartet)
Bernice, Erica & Heather - Trio (None exit, join Holly immediately for quartet)
Bernice, Erica, Heather & Holly - Quartet.
Ganesha dance.
Eilidh timed us with this running order and for all 4 pieces it took around 5 minutes. This will fit perfectly with Jo's 4 minute violin piece and with the Ganesha dance (7+minutes) we'll easily fill our 10 minute slot.
The only issue we need to address now is the matter of costumes. I got the saris from Mrs Basan this week and took them to Holistica. They were pretty big, but should be easy to adjust. Only problem now is getting tops to match. A few people returned their white tops to Zoobin after Bollywood Tyohar and we need to retreive them somehow. Eilidh texted Zoobin during the rehearsal to see if we could collect them from storage but I don't think this is an option. Mrs Basan has one white and gold top, which I could possibly collect, time permitting. We've all got to get lots of stuff together before the dress rehearsal next week...

We came up with many contingency plans incase we couldn't get the right tops, but luckily, before the next rehearsal, we all either managed to buy a top and customise it with gold braid, or use our existing tops fom the previous show.
