Ben, Lucy and Sammy's Excellent Adventure


Today the production team clocked up 12 straight hours of work on the play from 9:30 AM to 9:30 PM and beyond. Fortunately for them it has proved a hugely successful day thus preventing any major panic attacks or stresses, except when their lack of mathematics ability proved a stumbling block.
On the road again, the servant team pick up some garlic naan
to keep them going.
9:30 – The team assembles at Monatgue Burton (AKA Servant HQ)
10:00 – The team travels to 7Arts to discuss technical facilities with their staff.
10:30 – We leave 7Arts to visit Swiss Cottage, an Aladdin’s cave of antiques and second-hand furniture to source props and set. The first great success of the day as the staff prove incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and only too happy to help.
13:00 – After a short break for tea and a visit to LS6, the team begins trawling local businesses asking for donations for our raffle for our fundraiser this coming Friday.
15:00 – Success! The team is once again bowled over by the generosity on show as a number of amazing commitments from cafés, bars and restaurants ensuring that our fundraiser has fantastic prizes available for all of you to be in with a chance to win.
16:00 – A speedy lunch/dinner so the team can get to…
17:00 – Rehearsals only tonight with a twist. Tonight is the last night of blocking scenes for the play. From here on out all rehearsals will be devoted to run-throughs and polishing scenes to ensure we have the best and smoothest production possible.
19:30 – Back to Servant HQ to source the final necessaries for set (cue lengthy mathematical equations that boggle the brains of English students) and to put the finishing touches on other miscellaneous bits and bobs.
22:30 – This blog post goes live to you! 

raffle prize are being announced on the facebook event as we speak!
