In case anyone was wondering what I was doing this past weekend, this was it! I had a wonderful weekend playing in the pit orchestra for the Durham Savoyards production of Mikado and am very much looking forward to next year's production of Princess Ida.
This video gives a fairly good overview of most of the production, except that for some reason it doesn't show any shots of the orchestra! :-)
This is a video from last night's Mikado rehearsal at the Carolina Theater in Durham. The Durham Savoyards will be performing this show this weekend starting tomorrow (Thursday) night! I will be in the pit playing string bass and my wife Janell is in the stage chorus. I really like this clip since Janell is the person front and center at the beginning of the clip and it does a very good job of showing what she looks like with all her makeup, wig and costume (which is peach with teal trim).
So, if you're in Durham, NC this weekend, please come see our show!
