We have finished our Melbourne season with a bang. Thank you all who attended and provided us with their energy to keep delivering. The reviews have been nothing short of fantastic so far
and fingers crossed this trend will continue.
We had to part with three members of the cast, the WONDERFUL TRIO: Jane Bayly, Maude Davey and Reece Vella. I am forever indebted for their brilliant contributions to the first incarnation of the play.
Now is time for the Japanese version of the production. We arrived in Tokyo on Monday and from Tuesday we are working on it. Firstly the cast and crew met with the translator, prof. Keiji Sawada to discuss the nuances and differences of the English and the Japanese texts. It was a very fruitful session/read through, which helped us all with solving some of the cultural misunderstandings. Now we are rehearsing full steam on the floor.
Paraphrasing one famous author: "So many things will have to change in order to stay the same" - but it's all worth it I believe.
