CoLab - It's A Kind Of Magic - Wednesday, Thursday and Friday

Hey there friends, examiner and any other person who is reading this cos they've got nothing better to do. So, just finished the magical ( I am so funny) week of Colab rehearsals. It's been a blast and working with the other members of the project has been such good fun, we are all really looking forward to performing on Monday and are really hoping for a good audience.
The last few days have been spent preparing for the show. The first two days were more about the actual technical aspect of magic but we have now started collaborating with the musical elements. We have all been working in pairs and trying to work music in with whichever trick we are performing.
I have been working with Quiajing and we are tackling the water based tricks. It's been interesting trying to add a musical element and designing the performance around the music and vice versa. We have a nice juxtaposition of a light hearted trick with a couple of shock moments and an extremely tense second trick which immediately follows. I'd love to go into details but I don't want to spoil it for anyone who is coming to watch on Monday.
We've also all been watching the other groups learn their tricks and been assisting as test subjects and helping with planning. The entire group have been really fun to work with and all the tricks are going to be amazing on Monday. It's been quite interesting how the increased confidence has translated back to instruments as I know I definitely have been playing with a lot more self belief even when it has been going wrong. Sorry about the shortness of this post but hey, don't want to spoil anything so here's a picture of Ben being taught his trick as well as a copy of the plan of action for Monday, Deanna out.
