the chorus

Mission: Clarified

There was a moment in our Sunday readthrough where I was explaining to all the dancers that it was okay to sing even though they didn’t sing, because they were in a chorus. I talked about Rocky Horror / Messiah / Buffy: The Musical / Sound Of Music sing-alongs, and religious music, and I eventually said “I want to make a world where I can go see Greek plays and sing along with them, from the audience.” And I had a moment of “Oh, THAT’S why I’ve been working on this for so long.” Because that would be worth any amount of work.

I have seen the chorus, and it has a V on its forehead in lipstick.

(Robert says when you google the Greek chorus, I’m one of the later results. I haven’t been able to replicate that, but just that it happened once made me very happy.)
