Rehearsals for "1913, or Nude Descending the Staircase" are going really well, but they take up a good chunk of our time, so i haven't had time really to enjoy any of my favorite Swiss pasttimes (hiking, biking, swimming in the lake, etc) but tomorrow we have a day off and we are planning on doing some of the above. Next week we are rearranging our rehearsal schedule so that we can have afternoons off to chill, so that will be much better and a lot less stressful. Right now memoriing is a bitch but we'll get through it.
Rehearsals for this play are in Zugerberg, which is a mountain village about 30 minutes outside zürich. To get there we have to take a train to a bus, to a CABLE CAR!! 15 minutes on a cable car and then you are at the top of this mountain with the most spectacular view in all of switzerland -- you seriously can see everything from up there. and it is completely secluded, so we can focus solely on our work, its pretty awesome. The next two weeks of rehearsal wll be tough, but then Edinburgh will be really fun since we just have one hour-long performance per day. can't wait.
Right now alice and I are living in this villa with 18 other students, the rooms are huge, its kind of like a commune type thing. the people are realy nice, and we have a ping pong table, and a big movie screen and projector in the back yard, so we can watch movies and stuff outside.
nothing else to report. life goes on.
