3 days and counting.......

5 hours of rehearsal yesterday, and a voice class in the morning. By the end of rehearsal, my voice was grating and scratchy, and Kim told me not to use it AT ALL today - no calls, no talking. No dairy, coffee, chocolate, between now and Friday night, because they're bad for the voice.

I'm beginning to get a tiny glimpse of what it takes to really dedicate yourself to the craft of performance. Everything you do, every moment of the day, affects what you're able to deliver on stage.
