Welcome to Felix Culpa's REVENGE actors blog

Hi there. My name is Raphael Kepinski and I'm going to give you a behind the scenes look at the rehearsals of Felix Culpa's Revenge. I'll be posting a bunch of photos from the rehearsals and whatever else comes to my mind. One thing you should remember though; rehearsing a play is pretty boring work, most of the time it's done in a drably lit room, with malnourished actors ambling about trying to figure out what's going on and why the director is yelling at them. Things are done over and over and over and over ad nauseum and everyone is tired and confused. It's not until the costumes and lights are in place, and everyone knows their lines and where to stand that the show becomes a something, so with that in mind don't expect this to be some glamorous exciting show biz blog but rather a look at a work in progress.

Party! We're open.

Well last night was when it all comes together; the hours of memorizing, rehearsing, standing around, stressing, and having fun all unite and the show opens. Opening is very exciting because the audience is friends and family, reviewers, artistic directors, agents, etc. Basically everyone you want to impress. But like a soldier going to war you've got to put all that behind you and rely on your training and what you spent four weeks rehearsing. Thankfully there's always a party afterwards where you can unwind. This is the most "celebrity blog" this blog will get.
My girlfriend liked the show So did my mom I think my dad liked the show too (he's drinking my beer)The party was at the Firehall and it was packed. Everyone had a great time.
Congratulations to everybody on a great opening; Let's have a great run.
