Hello everyone!
Kate from the Red Company on this morning's blog!! Yesterday we had a great first day flyering and postering, met some lovely people from other companies and shows on the Royal Mile and we were thrilled to see a buzz already about our show! The flyering award yesterday went to James Cross, our hunky lighting designer and Ben, the red company Jamie, for flyering techniques such as diving in front of people's video cameras holding flyers and defying gravity in an nail-biting fashion to stick reams of posters on the huge postering cylinders on the mile!!
Yesterday we also took our brand spanking new Last Five Years t-shirts out for a turn around town (once the girls had artfully cut up and customised them!) they are lovely and navy and have our logo in very big writing on the front, so if you spot one of us wearing one, give us a wave!
Yesterday we also managed to fit in a few of our first fringe shows. We saw Beltup Productions do 'Second Star To the Right', Backhand Theatre do 'The Love of a Clown', and Bubonic Productions swashbuckling romp 'Piramania'! All worth a watch if you're Edinburgh bound (after you've been to see Last Five Years of course, naturally!)
The Blue company then headed to our venue for the final dress rehearsal which was a huge success! The venue is looking fab, and that brings us to today, OPENING NIGHT! Red company officially open our run of Last Five Years tonight, at C Aquila at 10.30pm! We are incredibly excited and are heading out for a massive day of publicity very shortly, and EXCITINGLY have a limited amount of FREE tickets to give away today to special people who we think will enjoy the show! So, if you're around the mile and would love to come and see Last Five Years on the opening night, come and find us, give us a big hug and we may be able to sort you out with some exclusive freebies! You heard it here first!!
ALL SYSTEMS GO!!
HOORAY!!
Over and out,
Kate
