We will then have three 2 hour rehearsals or two three hour rehearsals per week until we open, this will be discussed with the cast. As this is very much an ensemble piece of theatre ,most actors will be required at every rehearsal. I will do my best as always to only call you if needed. Please come along and have some fun it’s a great play with wonderful characters.
