The show had gotten too light. It is about revolution and the brutality in the story that leads to it. Of course there are funny moments, but the stakes are high. That was what we were missing in the singing. The singers were not portraying the stakes being high, it was lighter than the actors. That didn't work when we have younger versions of the characters that are supposed to become the characters that are in the midst of the French Revolution. Some scenes were really worked and I think are making a huge difference.

I was wondering, if I enjoy the process of rehearsal or the performing more. I think rehearsals...unless the show keps evolving each night, which it will. It's quite exciting!
