Actual blogging...
Well, that clearly didn't happen... which is unfortunate for many reasons.Â
1. I was supposed to be journaling for my grade on this, but I wasn't.Â
2. I wish I had those notes for myself.
3. This became a poster design blog (but I suppose I used it how I needed it).Â

Our finished poster. Â
LOVE.Â
Apparently I really just want to reblog posters.Â
Love this one.Â
I can't wait to see what ours is going to look like.Â

Directing is like sex in that you never see anybody else do it so you don't know whether you're doing it right.
Terry John Converse (Directing for the Stage)
Setting the rehearsal schedule...
is driving me nuts. I keep forgetting that I have power to change it as necessary, etc. I am just worried I am going to give myself enough space or have unaccounted for time or something. AH.Â
Whomp whomp.
Just found out my ask wasn't enabled. Oops. It is now.Â
On researching other productions of the show...
I know some people think you should close your mind to anything and everything about any previous production of a show you are working on, but I don’t think so.Â
I couldn’t duplicate someone else’s show if I wanted to… and I don’t. But I also don’t want to duplicate anyone’s mistakes or ignore what may be solutions I haven’t considered… or more importantly, problems I haven’t considered.  Â
The way the promotional materials tie into the set design is amazing. It really streamlines the image of the show. (Open the read more to see.)
This cohesive look is something our mainstage theatre at school can never do because the posters for the whole season are done to tie together, but they are often in pretty stark contrast with the actual look of the show.Â

I quite like this more abstract visual representation of the Wesbrook women.Â
Just browsing the interwebs and found this from Hamilton Theatre's 2009 production. I don't want a poster like this for my production, but the family tree concept itself is intriguing... all of the people that surround the Wesbrook women and the way the traits differ.Â
The Designers
Working with the design team is still one of my biggest fears about my show currently. I think I'm more scared about it, because it is one of the only things I haven't delved into (while wearing a director's hat) prior to this full-length directing debut.
I've been on the other side of the table, but it's hard for me to recall just how this should be done. I don't want to be too prescriptive, but I'm afraid then I'll end up being too vague.Â
I am basically trying to figure out to get what I want and need without being a puppeteering dictator.
Thoughts?
Reading "Tips: Ideas for Directors" by Jon Jory
Absorbing everything I can about everything, then keeping it on hand throughout the rehearsal process for reference.Â
A big thank you to my Directing I professor for making us get this book. It's one of the most helpful for actually directing a show, not just learning about it.Â

Vocab list out to the cast/crew, which makes me feel at least a little accomplished.Â
Call out for replacement production manager. Santa, please bring us a competent applicant or two!Â
