![]() (by CC) We ploughed on with rehearsals today and managed to get moving on four of the five scenes planned for the day. Have to reshuffle Act 2ii for later in the week due to actor illness. Robert Rowe (Lepidus) returned from Buenos Aires jet lagged but as enthusiastic as ever, with fantastic stories of his appearance in a 4 person version of School For Scandal directed by an old friend of mine who I haven't seen for 20 years. Small world. David Kay and I explored The Soothsayer's relationship with Mark Antony, Andy Fitch tackled Enobarbus' 'barge speech' and we all had a merry time working out the drunk scene on Pompey's galley (note to self - sort belly dancer). Prior to that we spent a good couple of hours working on the messenger scene between Cleopatra (Nicky Chambers) and Alexas (Glyn Williams) and the first Pompey (Andy Mulquin) /Menas (Elliot Young) scene. The detail is coming as we go and we cast are getting in the swing and attacking the language with verve. With two birthdays in the production team today, it turned out to be quite eventful all round.
