October 29 Frank The Plucker now over! But what a ride it was!As you may or may not know Frank The Plucker...the theatrical Eggs-travaganza of 2006 is now over after 4 very successful shows! The show was performed to year 7,8 and 9 of Flinders College Tyabb Campus and then on Friday the 13th of October- Worl Egg Day- was performed to a public audience consisting of family, friends and teachers of the students. All shows went really well with only a few glitches but the amazing cast had outstanding performances for each show...2nd, 3rd and 4th show syndrome never setting in! The Public Performance show ended on a high with a standing ovation (Ok we kind of stole one because we made everybody stand up and do the chicken dance...nut still!) The audience really loved the show and we had great feedback...including comments that we should take FTP further and put it on publicly! The Friday night performance was filmed and has been made as a DVD so if you are interested in preserving a piece of Frank The Plucker history you can buy your copy for $5 from me! If you still read this blog and you came to see the show leave a comment about what you thought about it...we'd love to know! Also if you happen to have any photos of the performances if you could give them to me that would be great! Finally thank you to everyone's support over the last year or so as we have come together to put this show on. Without you the show would never have taken form and Frank would never have made it to stage. All us cast and crew had a fantastic time performing and thank you for coming and watching! Sean on behalf of the Frank The Plucker cast and Crew! August 20 8 Weeks To Go! So what's been happening?It's been awhile since we had a blog post so I thought I'd tack one on now to update anyone who is left that might be interested in reading!
Frank The Plucker is now 8 weeks off its premiere performance!
So what have we been up to?
Well rehearsals have been happening for many weeks now every Thursday night, with great success! The Cast of FTP is one bunch of good eggs and every rehearsal is always filled to the brim with laughs! The enthusiasm and hilarity of these incredibly talented 13-18 year olds is amazing, the future of FCCC productions will be fantastic if these guys keep up the good work!
Set construction has begun with the old 'Guys and Dolls' and 'Annie' door being remade into part of the factory! Other designs are also coming to life!
Costume is also busily underway fitting out all the actors with fabulous costumes! Repairs and bleaching is the main piece of work for the costume department at the moment!
Lighting and sound departments are slowly coming together and will begin on rigging the lights and sound very soon!
The small drama stage is set to be extended by about 8 feet...don't ask how big that is in metres! Hopefully it will be ready by the end of term!
Show dates are slowly being organised with shows to be confirmed on Thursday the 12th of October and Friday the 13th of October! Two shows will be held on each of these days. On Friday night there will be a public performance for anyone wishing to watch the show!
As you can see it is all happening for Frank The Plucker and did I forget to tell you so far we have no budget! It's a very exciting time with a mere 8 weeks left before we open...but we'll be ready! And we're going to show you all just how fantastic this show has become!
So what can you do to help?
Thank you all for your support over the last...well this whole year! Without you it wouldn't be worth it! Same with all those that ridicule the play...without you we wouldn't be motivated enough to keep going every week! Hope to see you helping out...or in the audience! Sean Oh and here is a nice little secret about the play! FTP does not end with any chickens in shell suits!
