'we're too good for OH&S'

Loading our stuff in and out of the northcote uniting church hall- Christy and I are carrying hundreds of kilos of equipment across a narrow road, through a gap between two parked cars and then up an insanely high step (how did anyone think the step should be that high?). I laugh about safety regulations and Christy says "we're too good for OH&S."

Kate sitting rugged up on a stretch of astro turf, taking her gloves off and blowing on her hands before typing the script as we improvise. Ania emailing us MP3 files which arrive on the i-phone so we can rehearse to them. Googling a courier to get the costumes to st Kilda. The constant round of phone calls, scheduling, rescheduling and date checking that needs to happen.

The to do list. We need gadgets, a cornflake serving device, sheets that also look like a doona for the bunks, the astro turf for the pole to be cut and fixed, a fence on castors, a letter box on an angle, lots and lots of balls...

We are rehearsing a show but we are also producing it and Luke and Christy are doing the set design and build. There is a lot that needs to be done by Monday - tech run.
